Bit of a newbie question this one.....

I cant see where to turn my dipped beam head lights on? Theres a knob to the right of the sterring wheel that I have pulled out, first click is side lights and second click is main beam? I need the dipped beam, the one you all ways drive with you know? :mad: Theres two buttons next to them, one is spot lights(front) and the other is rear fog.

I have not had a E30 before and im struggling to drive in the dark haha.....im no where near my manual either by the way, hence this post maing me look like an ass :cry:

Its a 320ic by the way and just passed an MOT, they should be working! :x

as you say 1st click/pull side lights then fully/2nd click should be your driving lights, if nothing happens when you go from 1st to 2nd check bulbs and alignment of lights.

For the main beam its left hand stork forward.
