Adjusting the headlights - am I blind?
 

I noticed the manual makes NO mention of how to do this. My pass. side headlight is JUST a little higher than the right, and it irritates me. Went to adjust it, and couldnt find the adjusting screw. Halp?

Service Manual-EXL-page 157

Thanks, I'll look for it later. Wonder why it wasnt referenced in the back...

It's in the Service manual, not the Owners manual.

the left side (driver side) sits a little lower for a reason. It is meant to be a little easier on oncoming traffic (i.e. not blind them!!). its not broken, that's just how considerate nissan is;)

Is it just me or do the lights seem set a little high up? I mean I can see great and all but I've already been flashed by a couple of cars, they think I have my hi-beams on!

Oh, you'd know if you did lol. That bright blue light would remind you, gently :)

My lights sit PERFECT. They cut off right at the top of most trunks on cars...

I use to think that sometimes, then I noticed it was more often on certain roads, then I noticed it was because of potholes. Bouncing looks like flashing, what can I say. Then I started driving the 'low' pony here in the land of tarmac tanks (read: massive trucks and SUV's) and my eyes are always bloody blinded, so I can't really tell anymore.

I remember that the left/right headlight discrepancy was more pronounced in UK, that I actually noticed it day to day. I don't think I've noticed it since coming to the states and driving more American brand cars. Maybe the headlights in the Z are more similar to the JDM or Euro spec, so they carry over the height difference by default?

Personally, I love the low beams, although I do see them go into other people's eyes with regularity.

The highs are great in the forward direction - but I'm thinking I want something off to the side. I was out on the twisties at night last night, and I couldn't see sh_t to the right and left. I know that it's because headlights are required not to spill out to the side, but my old crappy headlights on my MR2 always did. These are almost too good :rolleyes:.

Now I just need to figure out where to put some big flood lights - maybe I could go rally style :tup:
