Default Adjust Lights

Right 1st of all my front lights are crap, a candle behand the lens would work better, but come to the fact that they are pointing to low down so i cant see the road.

Not played with these lights before so.
This is my light.





And this is my drawing of the light on its side, as it has 3 screw legs, (sorry its crap lol)



Right how do i point the light up some more. Is it a case of undoing the bottom butterfly nut and tighten the top 2 to pull it up.

I'd say you were wasting your time with foglights, ('cos that's what they are), since:

1. They are crap,
2. They give out a crap light pattern, and
3. It's illegal to use them except in fog.

Why not get some driving lights to rerplace them?

If you MUST adjust them, look at the light from the front. There are three bolts holding the light in place, two at the bottom and one at the top. There's also a SCREW with a philips head at the top. Screw this IN (clockwise) to raise the light.

Fogs work great.

But dont worry know i have sorted it, stuck in some 50% halfords bulbs in and didnt tighten up the bottom butterfly nut as much so there point up alittle, and when for a spin down some country roads,

I'd still put some driving lights into the fog light position, PIAA are brilliant but not cheap.... also have main & dip like a headlight so you can still see if there's traffic about...

P.S. No I'm NOT selling mine....
