Headlight leveling...

Does anyone know how to adjust the headlights so they point a lil higher? I cant see anything when im driving on the freeway late at night. Anyone do this yet?

My 04 TL has really bubbly seats... and my dealer said they wont be able to replace with 05 seats due to vin # restrictions. And he said he'll replace it with 04 seats again for a one time service under warranty. Should i wait till the warranty is almost over? need some advice.

Thanks

Seats - What are vin #'s that can be replaced?
Lights - Rets, can you cut and paste chapter 22 page 185 of the manual to help this guy?

also before you raise the headlight level be sure that it is indeed low because these headlights have an incredible sharp cutoff point. raising them too high will in effect blind oncoming traffic. you will get high beamed all day long by drivers on the other side of the road. there is a method in which to aim these lights properly. its similar to e-code lights(european lights) that you find in bmw's and audi's. remember the headlights are to light up the road and not the signs above the highway.

Maybe they just need to be cleaned.

I'm not kidding, it makes a huge difference. Because the lamp is so small, even a little dirt can block of lot of Lumens.
