Since lowering me motor a few weeks ago, the beam coming from the head lights is pointing down more than what it was before (this is due to it being lowered 60 at the front and 40 rear).
Me car has its first MOT in the next couple of weeks and I am worried it might fail on this. Is there any way of adjusting the hight of the beam (apart from the switch on the dash, as this is on the highest setting).

Cheers ppl

Garage usally do it on the MOT. Every car ive had b4 they have done it there and then.

My corsa had its MOT couple of weeks ago and he failed it for the headlight adjustment!?!

Its easy to do, you have a little black dial thing you can turn to adjust them. But you cant really do it ureself cos u need to equipment to test it, which is what they have at the MOT place, so really didnt get why he just didnt do it 4 me, takes all of 3 secs.

In the end, i took it round the corner up close to a wall, and moved it so it looked the same as the other one. The bloke then passed it anyway.
