182 xenon light adjustment?

[kristian]

Iv owned my 182 for a few months now any ever since i got it iv thought the lights are crap!! i was well dissapointed after having my 1.2 clio with far better lights as standard!! They seem really low there pointing at the ground. are they adjustable? i know under the bonnett theres two white allen key adjustments on the rear of the lights, one on the side light motor i think and the other one at the outside corner of the lights. what do these adjust? can anyone help? thankyou.

They can be adjusted with the white screws you are talking about. These adjust the up and down. But these have to be set up on a beam setter to be set at the right level.

Hope this helps!

Did you set the lights to manual before adjusting them?

The White allen key type bolts 100% adjust the hight of each unit. Yes they are self leveling (off the cars rear beam), but you still need to be able to adjust the beam hight of each cluster (if knocked when taken out etc)
