Just to make sure, Clockwise the direction i should turn ? 

[kevinp58]

Thanks Chris and Rob  , I like the garage idea although my drive ain't level enough, But there is a spot that is, I could park another car sideways in front or something..

What does everyone else make of the pictures of dip/main lights ?, Passenger side looks the worst to me, Drivers side looks about correct maybe a little high.

Presuming the adjusters are fine with a 190k on the clock it's doubtful probably very worn at the very least, How do I know the self levelling is working, Should I hear a motor sound as soon as I switch the lights on ?

Also I'd like to ask, Being new to HIDs I'm not familiar with the reactions of other drives, Dont see many car with HIDs around here, Do you find personally when driving a Vehicle with HIDs that you get flashed now and again ?, Sometimes I find 4x4s with HIDs do tend to blind a little more than cars.

While driving last night I could see the oncoming drivers faces lighting up and their glasses shinning back mainly on hills up/down, corners, junctions etc... Cars in front dipping their interior mirrors 

   









shouldn't do mate if they are aligned properly

The adjuster nearest the grill does the horizontal, that's the one you need to adjust for height.

That doesnt make sense Mr VXL

[Mr.OmegaMan]

If the worst comes to the worst, How hard is it to replace the adjusters with the aluminium ones..

These if i'm correct.. £32 for x2 inc p&p

 How hard is it to replace the adjusters with the aluminium ones..
.......

Fairly easy, just patience required in removing the 'glass' to get to the adjuster.

Unless you buy new, you've no idea if the replacements are any better than what you've got

So If mine are broken i'd have to fix or buy new or keep adjusting manually now and then. I want HALOGEN headlights instead 

Only kidding, Their great lights the HIDs and these are probably passed their best the bulbs, Will update on how things go hopefully tomorrow night...

No the lense will flap about because the adjuster has snapped. Standard projector headlights have the same adjuster....
