B5.5 Aftermarket Headlights Beam Low!

Post by jannerboy »

Guys,

We bought some aftermarket lights for the B5.5 130 estate. We had to swap over the manual adjuster for the electrical item from the stock lights...
But the lights could not be adjusted to get the dipped beam high enough!

In the end we had to swap back in the aftermarket manual adjustment mechanism and leave out the motorised stock adjuster.
Having done that we could easily adjust the lights.

The reason should be obvious from below...anyone else had the same problem?
