Hi all. Getting down to the last to do before we head of up north. I have checked in the archives but can not find anything on how to reajust the headlights. I can remember seeing in a garage a yellow board with black lines on it reposition the lights but that was long time ago. Has any one got the proper formula, web sites or other information for Nissan Terrano? Thanks in anticipation.

You can get it pretty close using this method:
1) Find a vertical wall near a flat, level surface - driveway or
carpark etc.
2) Drive the vehicle right up to the wall, and mark the exact position of each headlight on the wall.
3) Backup about 5 metres and adjust the headlights on high beam so that the brightest point of light is on the cross marks.
I always follow this up with a
check as described above, but it will give you an acceptable adjustment on its own.
Cheers,
Pete
