Headlight adjustment/fittings

Post by Popski » Sun Jun 03, 2007 12:44 pm

How do you adjust the headlamps on my M201 and what is the correct way to mount the headlights?
At present they are held in place by flat washers and a nut.The bolt is fixed inside the bucket.

Thanks
Adam

. I did mine by eye ...dark garage ...( use the TM but remember to point the Lights slightly to the left for UK driving..
To addjust ( L + R) you undo the large Nut and swivel them, then re do the nut up ..

Sorry cant remember if you can get any tilt up and down movement when you undo the large nut :oops:
