Hi all,
My car was in a smash and the front end was replaced. So new lights I have tried to align them so many times but I cant get them right.
My mechanic cant even get the alignment right because they just 1 don't react how they should when turning the little allan key hole and on side is now slightly worn so its near impossible to move them up and down at all, so they look more at the stars than anything else.

I'm assuming they are non-genuine. I need help! is there any other way of aligning them? or should i be looking at buying new lights? or what?

Thanks

remove the side indicators and the black plastic trim/cover that covers the light tops and latch mechanism. there is a lower adjustment on the headlights, 1 each side of the light, 10mm headed bolts, loosen them and push the bottom of the lights in and see if that helps, if so tighten them up and put the plastic trim back on
