 Headlight Adjustment - E39



One of my xenon headlights fell out of alignment recently and I'd like to see if I can fix it myself. How can I access the screws the adjust the vertical and horizontal orientation?

Thanks,

They should be readily visible when you pop the hood and look down on the headlight assemblies. I forget which screw does what, but just turn it half a turn and see what affect it has (park near a wall at night).

While there are specific instructions for getting them perfect, I find the "adjust until they look right, then drive around the block, then adjust again until perfect." works perfectly well.
