Hi all does anyone no if they ever did manual phase 3 head light adjusters? Or if a manual phase2 one would fit the crystals?

I was thinking about wiring in the electric ones but I don't no where to start Big Grin I do have the plugs and the switch but nothing in the middle.

The phase 3s all came with the electric height adjusters for the switch inside. I didn't realise the older ones didn't have that though so can't help any further lol.

Ohhh then adjusters, they're only for if your towing a load or have a full car and the back end sinks a bit to stop dazzling others, though im guessing this is what you want?

But to sort that out you use the manual adjusters on the back of the light itself, that electric adjuster only changes the height of both the same amount.

Drive to a wall and turn ur dipped beams on and sort the height with an allan key
