It's a very easy process to adjust the height of your headlight beams. I'm working on a Toyota Sienna van but the process is the same in nearly all vehicles. The screw may look different though.

Super helpful. Straight to the point. Thank you!
A man of few words but when he says something it useful. Video is to the point and doesn’t waste my time with BS. Well done!
Finally someone explain how to turn that screw to which direction for making the beam lower or higher. Those clockwise and counterclockwise from other videos were so confusing. Thank you very much.
Saved me a lot of time watching 20mins videos that didnt even show how to do it. Thank you for your video, really helped. Really straight to the point.
These are intended to be adjusted from above (not using a 10mm socket) by inserting a cross-point (phillips head) screwdriver along the groove until the point engages the "gear" which turns the dial clockwise or counterclockwise. Many headlights have the 10mm pan head which are covered by trim or other components, which are not accessible.
Thanks for pointing that out
Most important point!
Dave, You are the man. Thanks
Interesting...... My 2017 Highlander has a similar screw as this one does but a 10 mm is too big for the screw on mine. I sarched and found a Toyota manual online that shows how to adjust the low beam on a 2018 which is the same as mine and it said to use a socket on this screw. I wish I had a printer to print that page because I forgot one thing that is also important. Which way do you turn it to raise or lower the beam. I'm pretty sure it was counter clockwise to raise it and clockwise to lower it but I'm not 100% sure. By the way I did adjust one of my low beams up to match the other one ( stock and npo accidents so either it was "out of alignment" from the factory or the last bulb change may have had the bulb slightly wonky?????? if that would affect it. It's easy to see what turn direction does what to the beam though. I do remember that to move the beam took more cranks with the ratchet as you can only move it about 1/8th of a turn due to the amount of space. I'm going to look for the slot for the screw driver though as soon as it gets light outsuide. Thanks.

Wow that's clever design. Thanks for saving us some time!
Thank you so much for getting straight to the point. I went thru so many videos and still didn’t understand until I watched this one. Once again thank you. 🤗
I just got my Van Headlight adjust today, after I watched your video. Thank you !
The most simple and best explanation, thank you.
You are the man! I couldn't figure out how to adjust the headlights on my 2004 Avalon but I looked down there and there is a screw similar to the one on your Sienna. It's a little hidden and I needed a stubby star head but I loosened the screw and the beam is actually shining down the street instead of directly at the ground. Very nice! I had to remove my headlight to mess with the screw but it was worth it.
THANK YOU FOR KEEPING IT SIMPLE.
Great video- camera work spot on , straight forward info thank you!!!
Very helpful ! :) I’ve just installed some new light units to my ‘09 VE wagon so now … I can get it right before jumping into traffic :) . Cheers !!
Thank you for a helpful video, you just got right to the point and answered the question! Clearly explained great job
Thanks! Simple and easy instructions and it worked!
Thanks for the great view. Only thing that would make it better is to show how the screwdriver can come down from above to turn it.
Great info and to-the-point! Thank you!
Wow this is Great lecture, I just watched this video and adjusted my light right away
Thanks. Just what I was looking for. Very helpful!
Short and to the point Great Job !!!! Thank you!!

Good video and straight to the point thank you very much
Thank you. I found it very easy and simple
Appreciate your effort and sharing the vlog.
Thanks for being straight to the point without giving a stupid history and modern advancement lecture of stupid headlights... THANK YOU FOR THIS STRAIGHT TO GET IT DONE VIDEO.
Great video helpful and to the point.
Damn thank you very much...literally all I wanted to know was which direction to turn the stupid screw! Thanks!
Handy information saved me a lot of time thanks
If you can't reach this screw with fingers then it is designed to reach with a Phillips, you put it in the hole at the top and the notches on the Phillips fit into the gear and then you can adjust up or down with ease by turning the Phillips either way.
Thanks just what I needed
Thank you, tired of people flashing me with high beams lol. The guy who installed it said it was perfect when I told him it was too high on the drivers side. No more business for him.
Most countries drive on the right side of road. Right headlight is always a bit higher than the left headlight
Mine is too low. Can hardly see unless I put full lights. Will this help?
Helpful video. Thank you.
Fantastic information!
Thanks for getting right to the point.

Very helpful!
Thank you Sir very helpful
That was real helpful video
Thanks for the help
Helped me out thanks
Nice video and straight to the point. But what you failed to mention is what kind of vehicle this is on? Different vehicles have different headlight adjustors on it. My doesn't have this...
Thank you it was useful
Clockwise - Lower
Anticlockwise - Higher
Also known as counter clockwise :-p
@@idahospyder1620 🙄😬
Thank you!!!

Thanks for the info
Your headlight ajust saved me 175.00 a shop said i need new head lights that they wer not adjustable
Thanks!
Thanks for the vid
good video...yes...
but as we all know different car comes with different types of socket adjustment...
Straight to the point! Thank you!!!!! I lifted my Prius and now everyone thinks I have my brights on.
You can also use the Philip screwdriver the long one
thank you
Thank you for the video. This is the type of beam adjuster my headlights have, however mine is a 12 mm. How many turns to adjust? I turned about 20 turns in either direction and it does not seem to have any effect? Is this for high beam, low beam, or both?
Trying to find the adjustment screw on the passenger side is a pain in the rear. Thank you for showing the info
Lovely
thanks
Now what to do if my new replacement parts only have one adjuster and the old ones had two?
I have a car the the headlight is aiming too far left and right on each headlights. Is there any way to adjust horizontally on the headlights or just up and down (Vertical) adjustment
Does this adjust my bright beams also they pointing on the ground please help
Does this move the actual headlight piece? Or just the bulbs inside?
Be sure that you are adjusting the proper one, as the low beam and high beam have separate adjustment screws.
Is adjusting lowbeam headlights done the same way on a 2007 Mazda 6?
Can u move them left and right on a skoda kodiaq
8mm close small mini wrench or a phillips screw driver to adjust the headlights ....5 stars Video
Mine is too low. Can hardly see unless I put full lights. Will this help?
How about side to side adjustments?
I can adjust mine by hand so does that mean its too loose? 2011 srx
Does that include the high beams cuz one is low and the other one very high..
Put some new headlights on my 2005 Highlander. The light is pointing to the ground so I guess I need to turn the adjustment screw to the left to raise the headlight beam...thx
This will adjust the up and down, now how u adjust the right and left, my left side is pointing right on the same spot where my right light is.
What do I do if mine don't work? Replace the whole thing?
How would you do this on a 2000 Dodge Dakota
Well, I tried that on my brand new headlights and gave it some 10 or 12 whole turns with no visible difference. How many turns should I expect for a visible change? I cannot find any Toyota Yaris sedan online... But thanks for the video anyway, it confirmed that I was in the right direction.
BTW, the teeth are for a Philips screwdriver with a long stem under an angle of 90 degrees. Mostly slided in from above.
you have to turn several rotations for the lens to adjust (move)
You probably have to turn it a lot to see any difference. What I did was I drew a line or put down a yard stick or something a few feet in front of your lights. Stand there and see where the lights shine on your legs. Mine were way under my knees about 3 feet away. On the other side they were right above my knees, so I loosened the screw all the way loose (left) and then I stood in front of the lights again behind the stick and they were right above my knee like the other side. The screw gets harder to turn once you near the end. Then you can adjust it from there. If you have a flat surface and some painters tape and a wall, you can do it the proper way. I was just doing a rough adjustment just to see if that screw made a difference. At first, I didn't notice anything at all, but my beam was literally shooting directly at the ground.
My 2006 Nissan Altima 2.5L sedan has one adjustment screw one each headlight assembly. My passenger side low beam was too high so turning it clockwise lowered it to the correct height. BUT, doing so also caused my high beam to lower the same amount so now, while the low beam aims correctly, the high beam on that side points to the ground 6 feet in front of the car. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how were you able to adjust the low beam without affecting the high beam?
The only thing that I can think of is that one of the bulbs on that headlight assembly ( it has on for each beam does it?) is not seated properly in the "socket". There are 3 ":tabs" on the bulb's mounting ring that go into 3 slots in the socket in the headlight and it is possible to get 2 in and not the third which throws the beam off a bit. Check that first ( I am having a hell of a time getting a new set of LED replacement bulbs in. They aren't those obnoxious overly bright " more than legal brightness for a low beam" LEDs but they have tabs that Halogen bulbs making it hard to get all 3 in. Also if your lowbeam is a Projector style and you are using LEDs it is crucial that the final position of the LED stick has it straight up and down with the LEDs on the sides at the 3:00 oclock and 9:00 positions. Check to see if any of this applies because if your headlights were okay before and you haven't been hit in the front end or had removed the headlight housing for some reason and that moved things around the beam direction shouldn't have changed much if at all.
Tnx
