- Today, we’re going to show you how to aim and align headlights on your
Audi S4, A4 or A3, Honda, Subaru, Toyota, anything under the sun. This procedure works great for both Xenon HID headlights and Halogen headlights on your car.
I hope the adjusting screws are as easily accessible on my VW.
Wow. You took this down to Brass tacks! Nice
Glad you liked this one Garrett!
I've always struggled with crappy headlight adjusters on many cars that I've owned. I get the beam adjusted as best I can, keeping the light beam aimed slightly low. I will adjust them to maximize the amount of illumination on the road surface without throwing light into on-coming traffic. I think auto manufacturer's like to save as much money as they can by specifying the cheapest, most difficult mechanical crap they can get away with for adjusting headlights. I was hoping you to demonstrate this on the Lambo !
Mario, I couldn't agree with you more about that one. There either isn't enough range or it doesn't work all quite that well. I didn't want to demonstrate this on the Lamborghini because thankfully they are aligned properly.
You would be surprised by this but the adjusters I showed you on the Kia are the EXACT same as the ones on the Gallardo!

Everything is exactly the same as the Xeons in the Audi but different adjuster locations.
Nice video. Very informative.
Right on Poorboy, glad you liked it.
My 05 audi giving me same issue, thank you so much
I have same audi, just tdi, I think that I aligned them good, but i dont have that clear line of light on low beam light, is that good or bad thing
So the 2 inches below the line of when your right up against the wall, equals 1 degree from 25ft away?
For side to side adjustment, clockwise turn to move the headlamps to the right anf anticlockwise to the left?
Richard, as usual, very informative and great video. I'm curious, are you getting bored with the Lambro' yet? I think eventually you'll come over to the Ferrari side as you gain more experience with the supercar culture.
Haha very funny christschool but no! I was eyeing a 812 but for that $$ my heart if 1000% in a SV or SVJ!
Ferrari is much more refined and elegant. The ostentatious overstatement in most Lamborghinis with the big wings is exactly my style.
How about the lambo’s headlights, do they have adjustment points easily accessible?, I haven’t look for them
Jacob, the two adjusters are actually very easy to find. I didnt adjust mine because they are perfectly aimed so not worth messing with a good thing! LOL
Check out this forum post. Look at post #9 The adjuster locations are in the fenders!

Should the driver side be aimed down a little more than the right for oncoming traffic?
It's supposed to... but that's also what the notches where he shows the light is horizontal, goes up diagonally and the horizontal again. It's to keep the light out of the top left area, typically where an oncoming car would be.
Do you have video how you make your bumper to look like that???
Dana, do you mean on the Audi? I need to do a full video on this car. The radiator is in the trunk and it has a full aerodynamic undertray with a functional splitter.
@@TheBullRider yes. On B5
@@dana_3321 Unfortunately it is a B5 S4 bumper that has seen better days! I had a front mount intercooler years ago and it was cut up for that. When I went back to side mounts, I filled in the spot with plastic hex mesh like this. amzn.to/3ESZC1y
@@TheBullRider oh, I was thinking that is A4 B5 modified bumber, but is s4.. Thank you
