Hey guys,

Just put in the APC Carbon Fiber headlamp housings... look sweet. I drove with them at night and my headlights seem to be off a lil. Or maybe its just me. Anyways... do I need to align my headlights? And if so, what is the proper procedure to do so? Thanks!

Yea you need to Align them... thier should be two screws one for up down, and left right... let me refer to me manual !

ROFL it's say's take it to the dealer!

Thiers screws somewhere that you need to tighten loosen to aim em... I'll look at mine tommorow..

yea i looked in the manual too... LMAO... I know where the screws are. I just need to know where to turn them too. I think I remember hearing someone say park like 20-30ft away and shine your lights on an object and make they meet or something. I dunno... thats why I'm asking you! Thanks!

Ya just do it on a dark street and adjust all you want. Just get them to aim 30-40ft down the street, or what ever you feel like. Just make sure that they are not too high or you will blind everyone.....hahahaha

All you need to do is park about 25 feet from a wall in the night. Measure roughyl 2.5 feet from the ground and mark it with tape. Then turn on your low beams and adjust the lights until they are aligned with your markings on the wall. It doesn't have to be exactly perfect, but that should help you out.
