Re: How do I adjust my pass. side headlight? (whip383)
There are two adjustment screws (look like brass star shaped screws) The one closest to the bezel cap opening behind the high beam lamp controls side to side adjustment, the second adjuster is located slightly lower and behind the low beam bulb, this controls the up/down adjustment. I found it easier to completely remove the bezel to reach these adjusters, especially the ones behind the low beam lamps. CAUTION - so you don't strip out the adjuster mechanism, make sure you put the lights on, shine them at a wall or your garage door from 10 or 15 feet back. Mark the lamp pattern with tape. Move one adjuster a small amount to confirm which direction you are making the change. DO NOT move the adjusters a significant amount. They are made of plastic gears and will strip out. So just make sure that if your looking for up/down movement and you don't see it, your probably cranking the wrong adjustment screw. Just take your time and verify which direction the adjuster is taking the pattern and you'll be fine.
I used a small nut driver on the adjustment screws.
