Saw a thread over on the general area regarding headlight beam adjustment and it reminded me of everytime I turn on the headlights in the 380. The drivers side low beam is aimed very low as is the high beam when flicked on. I know its probably legally like this and factory preset, but I wouldnt mind taking it upwards just a little.
After taking a quick look under the bonnet couldnt see any obvious screws to adjust??
Anybody know if there are any and where they are?

I drove from Bris up to Nambour last night and back (2 1/2 hrs all up) and was really happy with the lighting setup.
I wonder if your adjustment was affected with lowering?

Hmm, perhaps, but the highbeam especialy is a fair bit lower just on the drivers side. I dare say lowering would have uniformly affected both sides.

Did a Mitsu dealer do/arrange the lowering for you? If so speak to them, and with a nudge and wink they should help you out. I must say after driving thousands of kms in several 380's over the past year I've never noticed such an issue with the headlights.

Yes, the mitsu dealer arranged the lowering through Pedders.
Nobody has yet been able to answer my question though????? How do you adjust these things??:confused:

Is there nothing in the booklet given to you when you bought the car? I dare say there would be somewhere in there thats ays how to adjust the lights.

Usually there are white plastic hexscrew holes or phillips head screwdriver holes under your battery cover or near there at the front top, just under your bonnet... thats with most cars ive seen, I haven't checked out a 380. Do they possibly have automatic adjusters?
