[QUOTE="fabianyee, post: 400980, member: 6"] it's easy to check the head light level. find a level carpark facing a wall.. Drive the car as close as possible right up to the wall. Switch on the low beam and mark on the wall where the light level are on both sides. (Can also mark the center of the light beam to see later whether the beam is pointing straight ahead or not. ) Then reverse the car for about 1 - 2 car length and see if the light level now. It should be close to mark.. If it's to far above the light, it'll glare oncoming cars. If it's too low, can't see far loh... Have fun... BTW, best to go to basement car park... In most basement car park, it'll be flat surface and can find suitable spot for this light test. [/QUOTE]
