    just replaced the busted stock h4 bulb of my hilander with an all weather bulb this evening.

    my question is, how do i adjust the aim of the headlight? i can't seem to find the adjuster. unlike my sentra the adjuster is very visible.

    tia

    If you replaced a halogen H4 bulb with another halogen H4, there should be no difference in the aim. Regardless of brand.

    I agree. Changing the bulbs should not alter the aim of the headlamps.

    sirs bakit pag naka low-beam ako masyadong di ko nakikita yung ilaw?
    halos parang di nakasindi so i switch the fog lamps for better view.
    normal ba ito sa crosswind xto?
    TIA!

    No. Check:
    • Headlight aiming
    • Bulbs. One may already be busted. (Remember, H4 ang bulbs kaya combined ang Hi and Low beam. One may already be shot)
    • Headlights may already need cleaning

    your illustration is very helpful ... except for the beam pattern that applies to right-hand drive vehicles

    for our left-hand drive vehicles, the pattern is reversed, i.e., the slope goes upward on the right side, like this __/
