How do you adjust golf mk iv headlights?

Answer 1

They say this should be done by a professional but even if its true, you might as well try it yourself. Tools needed: 1 Phillip head screwdriver or Allen key. Procedure: Under the bonnet if you are looking down over the light, on the driver side headlight, you should be able to find two white plastic screw/allen head. One of them controlls the beams extent on the side and the other one is for the distance in the front. You need to play with it a little to get the feel of the turns and the effect it has on the light. Same set of screws can be found on the right side but they are lot less apparent. They are under a black plastic cover. However, they can be accessed from top in the same way through the holes provided. Its a good idea to drive to the nearest open, wide and flat space, park the car on the level ground. The screws can be turned with a moderate force, any more will break the mechanism. So if at any point if you feel that the screw is not turning, work on the other one and this should free the first one. You might need a torch as the screws are not easy to find when the headlights are on due to the dazzle. Good luck. Tushar tushu_80@Yahoo.co.in
