I looked up adjust and cutoff in the search bar but didn't find anything telling me how to adjust the cutoff up/down and or left to right.

Any one know how to adjust the cutoff for the 2013 Gs-sky? Pics if you have them would be appreciated.

Thanks

theres a (atleast on the 2010) bolt, i think its a 8mm,(not sure though, dont quote me on it) has like a big washeraround it with teeth in between the high beam and low beam bulbs on the back of the headlight housing. you can adjust it from there.

real tough to get at from the drivers side though

i think that is because there should only be a certain allowence on the drivers adjustement as that lens will always be slightly lower to not take the eyes out of the person coming towards you.

beam pattern is asymmetric, but both head lights put out the same beam pattern.... the driver side headlight is NOT aimed lower than the passenger side... that is just an illusion!
park your car against a wall and you'll see what I mean

there is an aiming spec for these cars, you must follow that spec or your headlight performance will either suffer or you'll blind others!
