730 (UK model)
Since I'll be taking a trip abroad this year I thought I better check out reversing the headlight dip. The manual says to slacken the screws and turn the units on thier slots to the other extreme and job done.
Except when I looked someone had mashed up the slots on one unit and it was already loose.
After dark mumblings about life, the universe and everything I was struck by insipration. Do the left and right units use the same mounting slots ? because by jove there a lot of em (slots that is).
Luck was with me and simply swapping left and right meant both units had good slots.
However ......
One beam is now higher than the other Mmmmmmm.
Any ideas where the adjustment is made to bring them into line please ?
