Where to get Headlights Aligned?

[dezinr]

Can anyone recommend a place where I can get my headlights properly aligned? They are pretty off from the previous owner who messed around trying to adjust them. Thanks in advance!

Cheers.

this is something I have also been wondering so yeah if someone would answer his question it would help me out too.

do it yourself...very simple
just park up so that your lights are against a flat wall...like a garage door and adjust them so they are even both vertically and horizontally then face the left headlight in just a tad so it doesnt blind oncoming traffic

An underground parkade should provide a nice smooth backdrop for aiming, and the concrete floor will be level.

Thanks to all for the tips...maybe now I will be able to see 2 feet past my front end with my dims on....(there not that bad but might as well be).

Cheers.

for those laking tools or know how where could one go. I know I could do it by myself but can't since I have no tools since I moved here from across canada and am too busy and too lazy to do it in what little spare time I have.

yah in japan its the opposite way so you cant pass an inspection here unless you get your headlights aligned hah

as for tools...all you need is a flat head screw driver or something to turn a gear like wheel...your finger can probably do the trick

A good brick wall also helps with aligning lights. I usually use an underground parkade and some tape for the most part...
