Oh ok, thats perfect because I only need some horizontal adjustment for mine. I'll try it when I get a chance.
Do you know exactly how they spliced the city light wires to the 2 corner light wires? I want to try to figure out a clean way as opposed to just cutting the corner light wire, then twisting the two together and twisting them both on the end that I cut.

Also, that would mean that the city lights come on whenever you put on your parking lights and therefore stay on when the headlights go on, like the corner lamps do.. Is that how it is supposed to work in Europe/Japan?

^ Solder and heat-shrink is the best, cleanest way. Also prevents road grime from seeping in and corroding copper wiring.

I believe there are some City Lights wiring guides if you google. Here's one.

Also, the green connector for the switch is the same one as for the rear defroster. Easy to find just about in any wrecker yard anywhere.

If you don't mind my asking - what did you pay for the EDM headlights setup? PM me if you want.

Cheers.

The adjustment on the right is for horizontal ... since the point of the motor on the left is to adjust vertically to account for a heavy trunk load which points the front end of the car higher and thus alters the aim of the lights.
I've had mine installed for quite some time and have yet to wire them up. Maybe I'll do it this weekend. With the above in mind, should the headlights be manually adjusted for proper aim when the switch is in the "0" position? The "1", "2", and "3" positions would then be used to adjust the headlight aim downward to account for trunk loads?
