Gen5 DIY Gen5 Headlight adjustment

Here is the DYI on adjusting low beam headlights in gen 5 camry
You will need a philips screw driver this long (2az ftw!)


here is the over view of the head light


you insert the screwdriver here




then you turn left or right to move the bulb up and down. do it slow!
i put my driver head lamp a little lower than my passenger so i dont blind the
oncoming traffic so much haha =]


enjoy

I noticed on my car that the drivers side light is a little lower than the passenger side. Is this normal or does it need to be adjusted?

btw, GREAT pics. The focusing (or however its called in the photography world) is amazing.
