The visibility has improved but,this normal?
Apology with the poor images,but its only way to show it in dark.
If it isn't what might be problem?
Alignment completely off because of not properly sealed?
Fitting was done incorrectly?
Reflectors damaged?
Bulbs giving in?

So how is improving the 'visibility' a problem?
& you wrote an apology for the poor images, surely you meant English?

You need to go to a garage and get the headlamps aligned. You could attempt it yourself against a wall but it's not as accurate as their machines. It's the sort of thing the apprentice can do and shouldn't cost that much as only a 5 minute job.
#6: Re: This normal(headlights)? Author: kurosagi01, Location: NorthamptonPosted: Sat Aug 25, 2012 4:30 am ---- I just went to the garage,they say the alignment seems okay but the pattern really off. I will need wait until Monday for them to see if they can sort it out.

I had a nightmare trying to free the inside of my headlights so they would move with my adjusters. Think someone tried to split them in the oven, gave up and sold them to me!

Plus the headlamp alignment needs checking / adjusting at an mot station.

Okay i was a bit of a idiot i did have the bulbs upside down,so i flipped them over and definitely made slight improvements. However the pattern is still off,is the screw that adjust it the one next to the cables?
