Default Headlight alignment

Swapped a headlight other day.

As there are only 4 bolts/screws, is there an order ?

If I do the top ones up tight first then they should be right ?

Then adjust the lower for left to right alignment ?

All our Audi headlights (NZ) are the euro type.

Default The order in which you mount the headlight has no bearing on the aim...

There are reflector adjustments in the back of the headlight. See Huw Powell's web site for more information on aiming.

Doh.

Now 1.28 pm and no surprises, everything is a lot clearer.

Time to hit the 'Southern Alps' and make a few turns before work then. ;-)

Default Re: Aye

Journey to the snow, would be nice.

Pretty weird though, nearly Spring and the snows only came about 3 weeks ago.
