If you feel your Xenon headlight low beam is a bit too low, here is how to adjust:

1. Find BMW screwdriver in the first aid kit


2. Find vertical adjustment screw for each Xenon headlight.



3. Adjust vertical adjustment screw on each side.

• Clock wise: down
• Anti-clock wise: up.

Start with 1/4 or 1/2 turn, and fine-tune from there.
Do not exceed 1 full turn or you will blind other drivers.

Note: Lateral adjustments are usually not necessary.

 

Good to know. Thanks!

 

Tip: might want to mark it so that you know judge how much you have turned.

 

or if you lost/forget the default alignment, this link will help to have a perfect aiming of the headlights:

Thanks hmc!!

Just curious, is there a way to adjust the brightness of the angel eyes rings? anything to turn for those?

Thanks!!

 

No, only way is to upgrade the halo bulbs. Take a look at AngeliBrights.
