Well I just hit 300 miles on my new 2010 TSX, and I'm a do-it-yourself kinda guy, so I wanted to adjust the lights myself. The manual says that to adjust the headlights aim, you need to take it to the dealer, but there is no way that they are going to get the left and right beams to match up as perfectly as I will take the time to do(left is about 4-5 inches lower than left @ ~30'). Anyway, the only image I could find is the blow up of the headlight assembly on Acura's online part ordering store, but it does not show where the adjustment screw or bolt for elevation is. It looks like that plastic radiator support cover will need to be removed for starters. Can any Honda/Acura techs give me a break down on where the adjustment point is, and what needs to be removed to access it.

P.S. I am very mechanically inclined. I've done numerous clutche and timing belt jobs on DSMs and Evos, I just don't want to start screwing with my new baby, not being aware of any potential pitfalls.

 

searching is your friend...answer can be found right here in acurazine (see last post):

Thanks man. FWIW I did search, must not have been as good as I thought though.

I must not have seen the gear box, because it's the same as every other car I have seen.

 

no problem...good luck with the adjustments...

 

I am under the impression that the left headlight is intentionally aimed lower so as not to blind oncoming traffic, but I don't know how much lower it's supposed to be so perhaps in your case it's too low. Just a friendly reminder.

 

This is what my dealer told me when I took my car in for the adjustment. It makes sense.
