For my used 2012 Chevy Malibu, changed a headlamp bulb shortly after buying it, left bulb..Came out adjusted a bit too high(cousin did the work, front bumper assembly had to be removed.) Noticed that now the right bulb is aimed a bit too low. A very good friend in CA (I'm in Miss) ordered, sent me one of those special Bondhus 6mm ball hex end extended-reach wrenches to fit the nearly impossible to reach adjustment head to adjust both lamps! On this Malibu, they're down deep, betw tight-fitting internal bodywork metal shrouds..real pain..have yet to do the job!! Hoping the adjustment heads will turn no problem. Surely not like the old days with simple sealed beam lamp units, with elevation & lateral adjustments!! Miss that!!#

At 1:26 you can see a label on the headlight which specifies a 1% dip, which equates to 3inches lower at the wall at 25feet (300inches). Your headlight centres are at 34inches so the tape on the wall should be at 31inches

Hello, great video! I recently got my car back from the body shop after a crash. The passenger headlight was replaced and now it's not as bright as the driver's side and the beam pattern is scattered everywhere. It that an alignment problem as well? FYI, I have aftermarket HIDs installed in a 2013 Ford Taurus SEL.

I don't know about Ford, but the one I work for, that 2" @ 25' below the H-Line/bulb center marking would probably put it on the lower end of factory output spec. Our cars are +/- a few mm from the bulb center while the suv/trucks are usually aimed lower a few mils then take into account the tolerance. I only mention this as I see retrofitters using tape marks at factory output. Always possible it could be off though so always good to measure like you did, especially when someone goes to this much effort to make the output better :).
@drnick1972

not sure I agree with you there. Most manufacturers recommend approx 1% downward angle, at 25ft (300") that's 3" which makes our man's video about 0.66% fall which, if anything, is insufficient. Your 'few mm' is in my opinion far from sufficient.

Correct. In fact the '1% dip' is actually stamped on the lamp at 1:26
@kfdaddy
@kfdaddy Жыл бұрын
@@drnick1972 Low beams should be set to project out to 200' on the drivers side for ANY vehicle. So the angle will vary depending on the height of the headlight. That's why there's that little dot on the lens cover. Using 25' as the distance used for checking, if your lens height is 36" then the drop would be 4-1/2". If the height of the lens is 32", then the drop would be 3". The whole point of aiming your headlights is to give you a good view of the road ahead and to NOT blind oncoming drivers. 200' is a good number to shoot for. And 25' is a good distance to be able to check the proper drop from horizontal. An easy way to calculate is to multiply your lens height by .125. The passenger side can go out to 400' since it's designed to illuminate road signs, people, etc that are most likely to be on your right and it won't blind oncoming traffic. That would, in general, let you raise the passenger side headlight about 2" above the driver side setting at 25' checking distance. The high beams take care of themselves usually. Using the % number seems ridiculous. Nobody is going to be using tools that can measure % that close anyway.

SIDE TO SIDE AIMING.... take the hid bulb out and rotate it approx 1/3rd turn an put back in. This part is a little trial and error. Bulb placement changes the beam direction. Ill try and describe rotation direction i used to make bulbs aim correctly. Using the extended leg of wiring harness that looks like an 'L' shape. Imagine a clock face in front of you while your in drivers seat facing out at road. '12 o clock' is facing directly up and 3 o clock would be out at 90 degrees to the Right from there. I believe my HID bulb legs grabbed at about '3 or 4 o clock' and locked in place at about 5 o clock (both lamps). They look much better now. Goodluck all

Are you being serious? 🤔... If so, yes!! You just need your beam @ 25' to be 2" lower than the height of YOUR vehicle bulb height, regardless of your vehicle (vagina on wheels or a monster truck)! Stock or not doesn't matter! Just 2" lower!!

No, as far as the driver side is concerned. The end result is supposed to give you a 200 foot distance on your drivers side headlight. So the rule of thumb is 1/8" drop for each inch of your headlight height on the drivers side. Why 1/8'? Because you're checking at 25' distance (300") to get a proper drop at 200' distance (2400"). In general, that number is closer to 4" for the drivers side headlight. And 2" less for the passenger side headlight.

You should have turned of the ceiling lights for a better perception of the headlight beam.

Help. Why isn’t the been exactly straight line all the way across. Why does it have that immediate stagger in height going from left to right

Most factory lights r only adjusted vertically for the low beam under the hood as mentioned in this video with a tool such as a Phillip's head screwdriver etc which is determined by the car manufacturer. However I just ordered aftermarket headlamps from Amazon and had them professionally installed as my original lights were too dim which is common on the Nissan Altima. It took the installer 3 separate times to finally get the beam to a place where I can see at night. Come 2 find out these aftermarket headlamps have 2 adjustable knobs for both the low & high beams for a total of 4 on each lamp. These r able to b adjusted both vertically/horizontally for both the low & high beams which was very confusing for the installer as he said its unusual. It was beyond frustrating but thankfully as of yesterday I finally got mine corrected lol.
