Light adjustment

[Detenator]

Does anyone know how to adjust the headlamps on a Gen1 sho?
I just rebuilt the front of this car after destroying the bumper (and a fire hydrant) and i don't know how to align the lights.
i mean, i found the screws and everything, but how high do they have to be?
what if i park in front of a clean wall during the night time, how high do i want the lights to shine?
thanks for your help.

When I adjusted mine, I parked about 15 feet from a building and aimed them so that the beam was about 18" from the ground.

BTW: How far are you from Syracuse?

There are small hex shafts at two locations per light: one horizontal shaft for left-right adjustment and one vertical shaft near the aft end of the lenses that adusts the vertical aim. They are about 5/32" or 4mm. You should adjust them preliminarily as suggested above, then farther adjust them on a nice, quite, dark road. The low beams should stay in your lane and give you enough lightened distance to drive safely at city street speeds. The brights are then tuned to be below horizontal and able to light the road for a good 100 yards. Be aware that one adjustment affects both beams.

The correct way to adjust headlights is with the high beams on.
