Default Headlight Adjustment

I was driving a 2003 Honda S2000 on a mountain pass at night and noticed that the level of the headlights was off. This made it hard to see on uphill left hand corners. I was wondering if it is possible to adjust the factory headlights? It would be great to rasie them both up and make them level. Thanks and God bless.

Yes. Funny, most people tend to adjust them down rather than up because of the flashing effect caused by bumpy roads. This really upsets on coming traffic. Like you, I'm not a fan of the sharp cutoff that makes seeing things up high difficult.

To learn how to adjust them, enter Headlights in the Search box. A Honda engineer who goes by the handle Woodwork has done a couple threads on how to adjust your light.

They are not off, Honda set them up this way to prevent the blinding of oncoming traffic. By raising the left you will likely get brighted ALOT. Do as you will and drive safe.
