Default Headlight aiming

I can't see anything really without having my highbeams on. I'm not sure if it was off and I never noticed it or what.

They seem too low and maybe off to the side a little.

Could someone point me in the right direction or maybe do a writeup

Pretty sure that webtech has the instruction on how to do this...

Maybe you need to replace your globes...
The globes will dimm as they age...

Ok, I found it on HMA I guess I didn't look well enough before.

When I got my wheel bearing replaced I asked the guy to adjust them, and he said there was no way to adjust em.

Thanks

hha actually, i did this last night after i did my clear corners.

supposedly, you are supposed to put your car on level ground 118 inches from a perpendicular wall. The headlights are supposed to be something like 47.5 inches apart, and i think 17.5 inches from the ground.

Honestly, i did what the manual suggested and drove away with even headlights that were still way too high. so...i manually adjusted them again an inch or so lower, had my friend stand at the opposite end of the street while i drove at him, and he told me they weren't blinding but were still bright enough.

so that's how i balanced my lights.

the way to do it, you can either do the long phillips head screw driver, (i didn't have one) or you can take a short phillips screw driver and turn a little black screw on the back of the headlight. I think clockwise = down, counter-clockwise = up
