Headlight adjustment for 06's?
 
I looked where the gear was for the 03-05's and i didnt see that gear... does anyone know where they might have put it?

I couldn't find it on my 03, do you have to remove something? I thought it was right behind the light.

Gryphin Nov 8, 2005 10:19 AM

on the 03 you just look straight down when you are looking from top of the headlight.... you might need a flashlight, but its down there... but i think they moved it for the 06's

Gryphin Nov 9, 2005 08:07 AM

bump... guess ill have to rip apart my front bumper and look.... just thought someone might know

TruBluZ Nov 9, 2005 04:58 PM

So the 06's still have the same problems as previous years with the headlights aimed to low from the factory?

I like the new 06 headlights. I see a big difference at night time. It seems very bright. The angle of th beam seems very wide. The highbeam is very bright--so bright, it will blind the person in front of you.

acually, my left light seems to be aimed a tad bit lower then the right... is there no fixing that?

Gryphin Nov 13, 2005 02:19 PM

^^^ thats what i wanted to toy with... but i think i found the bolt you turn i just havnt poped off the cover for it.. to check and see

The adjustment for the 06 lights is the same as the 03-05.

I had to adjust the 06 lights after the swap.

Just use the same instructions found on several posts on this forum.

Good luck.

Gryphin Nov 13, 2005 03:49 PM

werid, because ive done the adjustment on the 03 and 04 , but i dont see it on my 06'

Gryphin Nov 16, 2005 01:04 PM

ok i found it after looking for a while.. its right infront of your face... well comapred to the other models... My gears have a CAP over them.. you pop off the cap and adjust the beam with a + head screwdriver..

passenger side is too low, if you find a flat wall next to level ground, follow the same steps as adjusting the 03-05 headlights...Get the car on a flat surface 8' from the wall and the hot-spot should be at 26.5'' this will put it just high enough to cover the entire road, and curb, but not blind oncoming drivers... stock mine was around 24 on the driver and 23 on the passenger side
