2001 W210 Headlights aimimg procedure
My car failed inspection for misalligned driver side headlight. It has never been touched. No allignment procedure in the operators manual. Greatly appreciate a DIY procedure for alligning headlights.
Thanks

Yes, I did search the internet but found nothing on my vehicle. I will try it on my own if some one can identify the two adjustment found on the headlights. Which ones takes cares of the elavation and azmuth.

Thanks

Thanks Raymond. That simplifies it greatly. With HIDs let the lamps warm up before aiming. They only need a minute or less.
