Gusts to 50 mph

Highway driving in fifty mph wind. Pffft, the FIT noticed the wind but there
where no handling problems. So stop worrying and enjoy the ride.

Headlights... how to adjust them? With two people the FIT lights do not reach
out far enough, at 45 mph I feel like I am driving past the lights. With two 200
pound people in the back seat I could see great. Please tell me I do not have
to go to the dealer.

Snow on the mountains, I may go play.....

Wow! How's it feel to drive faster than the speed of light? :-)

It is either put 400 lbs of weight in the back seat and kill your MPG, or go to the dealer and have your headlights adjusted.

there is a bolt behind the headlight that adjusts the aim. it's the only bolt going into the headlight assembly.

Turn them both the same amount. Start with 180° turns at a time.

Passenger side adjustment:



Driver side adjustment:



As mentioned above adjust equally and in small increments. I waited till it was dark then drove up to the side af a brick building and used the brick lines for reference

Thank you so much for the pictures! I have been feeling like my headlights are so dim, but maybe this is the issue--thanks!
