Use the "search" button- instructions & photos and dozens of posts.

I say: Adjust them HIGHER until the SUVs flash at you...










The procedure is NOT in the owner's manual! (Page 186). Just the usual cop-out "have the dealer do it". As if! Do as Manxman suggested and SEARCH.

Shine the lamps at a wall at about a car's-length away. Both L&R should be equally high. Then back the car away from the wall, the bright spots should drop slightly as you get farther away.

That's it, it's not rocket science.

Sorry, we all aren't rude on the forum so I apologize on behalf of those who actually CARE.

Pictures on on post 35 in that post but there are directions and insight throughout the thread.

Feel free to POST or PM me if you have any further questions. Enjoy the Fit!

Wow! Someone who cares and is trying to help. He must think that's what forums are for. Laymen trying to help one another. What a radical idea. We need more like Kelmar!
