Left to right headlight adjustment
Left to right headlight adjustment
Hail fit freaks and praise lord Honda! 🙏😁 bought a new used 2013 sport 2 weekes ago and noticed the headlights are off.
Upgraded to silverstars and brought the beams up. The issues is that they are clearly not centered properly and i cannot find a way to adjust left to right.
both beams are off to the right with the left headlight beam shining directly in the middle path of the car while the right headlight is shining towards the shoulder.
its like the beams are off center towards right and its creating a dark space on the drivers side but it clearly noticable and bothers me.
this car has 39k miles and no accidents.
is there anyway to adjust the lights?
Thank you all.

Pretty sure it’s up/down only. What you describe sounds like proper alignment. Headlights point to the middle of the road and the shoulder because that’s the part you need to see. Lighting up the other lane is pointless beyond blinding oncoming traffic.
Thank you for the responses. Im used to a vehicle that asjustes in all directions.
i drive to work at 3:20am so im really the only car on the road and theres alot of wildlife. I hit a poor racoon trying to cross the road form my left side amd didnt see it in time to hit the brakes.
i feel bad about the racoon and there was damage to the bumper and condensor.

I used to drive home after midnight all the time, I feel ya. I missed a deer by fractions of an inch once. Only ever saw a flash of it as it crossed in front of me.
do you have fog lights? They spread out low to the sides much more.

During my road trip back in 2011, I smacked a deer in the head with my side mirror. It wasn't on the road when I turned around to look, so at the very least, it didn't die right there.
That said... fog lights do produce more light to the side, but it doesn't shine too particularly far forward. So, if you're going at a fast enough speed, by the time something is within that light, it might already be too late.
High beams could be beneficial if they're strong enough, but they tend to have a narrower direction of shine to the front.
But honestly, I feel that, even if you had some sort of high powered flood light that would project far AND wide... sometimes, it might not help with wildlife. Between tall grass for small animals and dashing out from nearby trees... heck, there are times they can easily be in your field of view, with your lights shining on them, but you might not realize it until its too late.
Just gotta hope for the best.
