Note: The headlights must be aimed correctly. If adjusted incorrectly
they could blind the driver of an oncoming vehicle and cause a serious
accident or seriously reduce your ability to see the road. The headlights
should be checked for proper aim every 12 months and any time a new
headlight is installed or front end body work is performed. It should
be emphasized that the following procedure is only an interim step
which will provide temporary adjustment until the headlights can be
adjusted by a properly equipped shop.
