Head Lights
Just thinking outloud.
Do you point the head lights straight out or do they crisscross each other? What is the proper way to do it.

Re: Head Lights
The best way is to take them to a shop and have them aimed. They have a device that suctions on the headlight and level bubbles. Or you can pull up to a wall and aim them strait ahead and a liitle in and down.

Re: Head Lights
Good foggy night and straight gravel road with no traffic works for me ! We usually make them slightly crosseyed. You want the lights to converge on the road together about where they run out of light. We always adjust high beams and hope the low beams are OK. On high beam, if you would drive down the center line (no traffic of course) we shoot for equal light on both sides, with the beam converging straight ahead on the line.

Re: Head Lights
When I put the lights in it I set them how they are now. I was curouis if I had done it right. From what you all have said I should be fine.
