    Anyone know if it's possible to adjust the headlight beam direction without using the dial next to the steering wheel area? Mine has stopped working and parts of it are now rolling about in the dash. The beams are stuck down at the moment which is making it a little difficult to see on pitch black roads when other cars and about and I can't use the high beams.

    It's booked in to be fixed a week from now but wondered if anything can be done before then.

    Theres two screws on back of the light. The lower one adjusts full beam and the higher one adjusts dipped beam, just plastic screw things and you can put a socket onto it to adjust. Hope this helps
