Adjusting the angle of the Headlamps (NOT by using the in-cabin toggle)
Good day fellas.
I recently had my driver side full lens/bulb replaced and it is positioned very far down. I can see the difference from the right light in comparison to the left. The horizon looks like: __--- when driving at night. Playing around with the toggle does not fix the issue because the bulb (I suppose it's the bulb) is angled so far down. Is there a way to manually level out the bulb to match the right and actually make the left lamp functional? Thanks.
