Look in your glove box.. Take out your Owners manual... Look at the Table of Contents... Go to the page that gives the description of How to adjust your Headlights.

&lt;--------wonders what the hell has happened to common sense and learning basic maintenence from your owners manual.

There is lots of good info in there people.

For many people, Honda Tech takes the place of common sense. It even takes the place of moral instruction, sometimes.

It's not unusual to have to readjust headlights after making a suspension change.

He also needs to get his alignment checked. Sometimes people make a suspension change and are horrified at the results, but all that's really wrong is that the car's hopelessly out of alignment. Go to a good place for that first alignment after a suspension change...it's not something you want to skimp on, because the thrust angle needs to be checked.

I believe there is some question as to why you have rsx in your username if you drive a teg.

HAHAH. 19's?!? "rsx" "teg" or whatever you drive, at least have a clue about what you're talking about before you clown on someone... you just keep shooting your own foot with this post...

- Make sure you adjust the headlamps to how the lights look from when you're inside the car on about a 1/2 tank of gas...
