Headlights Too Bright?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

On both my Ls and Rx the head lamps are self leveling-a legal requirement with HIDs. However there are still adjusters on the lights. This means the beam is set and then levelled from that setting. IF someone has put them right at the top of the range of adjustment then you are driving with lights that are aimed high so that, together with the bright HID light, can cause drivers to think you are on main beam, hence the flashing. Happened to me on a previous LS.

Hope this makes sense.

Pete

Try any MOT station. I think they should check the alignment as part of the test - mind you mine just checks the lights are working. The whole thing should only take a few minutes- its only a couple of adjustimg screws. You can do it yourself by looking at the beam pattern on a wall and lowering it but obviously this will not be totally accurate. Several years ago i asked my dealer to "set them as high as is leagal". After this I rarely needed main beam But did sometimes get flashed by other motorists. There was no extra charge by the dealer.
