E code lenses and the level bubble 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Dick on  Sat Jan 15 23:49 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Replaced my SAE code lenses with the European, only to find out from a post that the bubble would no longer show level when the e-code lenses were adjusted to level. Is there someway I can readjust the bubble or replace it with the European one? Dick

The true euro headlight capsules are adjusted by electric motors and have a switch on the dash. The idea is to allow beam adjustments depending on the load in the car.

We have hybrids and need to do things manually.

There is supposedly a Hella beam aimer available at some shops, but I've never seen one.

I just use the old-fashioned chalk-and-wall method.
