To adjust your car headlights, there is more to this process than just turning the headlights on.

There are so many things to do to properly adjust your car headlights.

1. Start by checking if there are no heavy materials in the trunk of your car. This is important as it will help you to level the car and maintain its balance in terms of height at all sides.

2. If you have a wall very close to you, take your car very close to the wall and let there be a distance of 12 to 15 feet between your car and the wall.

3. As soon as you are done with step 2, then turn the headlights on. Having done this, then use paper take to mark the horizontal and vertical distance of the two headlights beams, then make sure they are at the same level.

4. If the headlights are not at the same level, reverse your car to maintain a distance of 26 feet to the wall, then remove trim ring and adjust the screws of the two headlights separately.
