anyone know how to change where ur headlight is aimed, my left headlight seems to be higher than the right... (97 240sx) on the headlight it says 'headlight shall be aimed according to owners manual' but they dont seem to be at the same level... T.O 240sx

Place car on flat surface, turn lights on.

Open hood, look at both headlamps

Adjustment screws for horizontal/vertical are right on top of each headlamp.

Adjust by turning the screws and looking at the 2 horizontal/vertical indicators and make sure both are relatively same.

Also look at beam when aimed at wall, make sure both are level.

park about 20 ft. away from the wall. . . the lights should be about knee height. . .
