Re: headlight adjustment V70-XC70 2000

posted by  someone claiming to be Chris on  Wed Mar 7 08:49 CST 2001 [RELATED]

If you type in Headlight Adjustment into any search engine for the Internet, there are a half dozen articles out there on how exactly to do it. If you want to fudge it I would recommend finding a level area against a large wall (parking garage works well). Figure out on the wall with a mark (tape works great) your headlight height from the ground and center of each lens. Backup about 12 feet of so. Your low beams should be (if I remember right) below and inside your marks. Your high beams should have you marks in the center of your illumination.

Give it a try and adjust for your preference from there. Don't let those highbeams get to high as you'll end up losing your hotspot and they won't do any good.
