I presume you mean these bits? I have the end bits that do the adjusting but i dont know if they work, but when i cut the tubes to get the underdash panel off in a hurry no fluid came out so thats probably why

Hi must be time of year I was about to ask how to adjust headlamps manually as the original system has been binned. Tips please.

had mine out today, the head of the adjuster screw that locates into the headlight has a cross head on it so you can screw em in or out with a phillips screwdriver, if they aint stuck like mine lol!!!

u can adjust a little by turning body but it aint enough for me

Before now I've found it easier to just replace the whole headlight unit than try to adjust them! Bought some lights, had them fitted and they passed the MOT straight away!
