Adjusting Xenons for European driving.
« on: 10 July 2009, 10:11:09 »
Hello all,
I'm off to France in my 99 Elite which has Xenon Headlights.
I've read that you cannot stick beam diverters onto the headlamps-is there an easy way of adjusting them?

Regards

you can stick converters one, but don't bother, as it has adjustment levers to modify it to 'neutral' setting (slightly lower and straight)

That reminds me must put mine back to Uk setting..

The levers behind the black rubber cap. A bit of a faff to do as the levers not that big or obvious and your doing it by feel...
