headlight adjustment

[paulm172]

Need to adjust the headlights as they seem a little low. How do i do this on a mk2 172 as the 'generic' handbook says about turning the trundle wheel but this just adjusts the dash brightness. Thanks

Is there not a dial next to it? For headlight level adjustment? Mt cup has it although if you have xenons you may not have it, some else will help you there.

xenons are self levelling.

You can adjust it in the engine bay, iirc it only works if you dont have xenons

You can manually adjust them by turning the white hex-head screw behind the headlight. Don't blame me if you c**k it up tho!

You can manually adjust xenon's as well, no probs

I would park up infront of a garage and mark where they are now so you can put it back to original if needed
