So the misses cracked the headlight on out 1 series (we always say it was the misses, but honestly it was)


I have got a new headlight from cotsworld bmw, great service and price, thanks Phil! and attempted to fit it today, but i'm a bit lost with all of the adjusters

I was hoping to fit it basically and then get the light aligned properly, but it looks a bit of a pain as you have to remove the bumper each time you need to adjust the light by the look of it.

Does any one have a guide or service manual on basic setup

The light has two screw adjusters on the bottom of the unit


and fitted to the car it looks like this


Lights are Halogen BTW

does any one know a start position?

Hi, thanks for replying

The one that came off lost its settings when removing the screws on the underside

I think the adjustment screws on the underside, top left and single boit right are just for making the Headlight fit the body, the actual alignment is internal to the lamp

Thanks
