After researching and watching videos for the past half hour, you're the first person to mention both adjustment knobs. Couldn't figure out why mine were't adjusting up and down. I was turning the inside adjustment. Didn't know there was another one hidden lower on the outside. Thanks SO much!!
Great tutorial - got it done in minutes, and also just eyeballed it until it looked right. Bonus was that I rummaged through my socket set (thinking there's no way an E10 will be in there), but it was! Thanks!
Actually have one on a dedicated impact driver that I used to use for popping the hatch of the back of my Jotul woodstove (catalytic) so I could blow the fly ash out of the combustor - that was such a pain in the ass, having to do it every few days, that I bought a new woodstove, and wish I'd done that years ago. Twice the heat with less wood.@@BlueCollarDIY
Thank you for simply explaining the counterclockwise and clockwise directions. You’d be surprised how many people made videos, and didn’t mention that part in the video.
Nice job, short, sweet and correct. Got old eyes and need all the help I can get. Had my truck in the shop for repair and found out after that my driver light was inspecting power poles not the road. Great job.
Thanks for the tip on the ETN socket. measure your beam at the headlight, then with the truck 25 feet from the garage door, adjust the low beam 2 to 4 inches below the beam height at the truck. thanks
Thank you for this video on know how. I just bought new headlights assembly for my 02 Silverado 1500 the new ones are off badly. Now I can adjust them correctly.
This is actually just for 1999 to 2002 trucks. The Cat Eye (2003 to 2007) Silverado truck is different from Suburban and Tahoe. Just 1 quarter inch bolt head adjusts light height.
Thanks for the tip. I'm seeing people take the fronts off the pickups with cat eyes and putting them on their Tahoes & Suburbans. First time I saw one, I thought GM had done messed up...lol
I have a 03 cateye my up and down screw is top center of the headlight its self and not like the video . and i cant find the left to right adjustment screw which is what i need to find
Does this adjust the high beams, low beams or both? I need to adjust my low beams, but my high beams are fine tho. It's just when I dim my lights it points straight to the ground and I can only see 3 feet in front of me. I drive a 99 s10 Xtreme by the way.
no, on your truck you cannot move the high beam and low beam independently. Sounds to me like you have an improperly installed bulb or a bad lens. But id try adjusting them anyways to see what the high beams do.
I've always heard that the top of the low beam should be at the same height as the center of the headlight or slightly lower. That's generally where I start.
LOL...not my building. Landlord kept saying he was going to restore that Garage. I lived there for 3 years, have been moved away for another 1.5 years and it still looks just like that. I think it's safe to say he'll never get around to fixing it! lol
@@heelloverjones5948 To each his own I guess. Mine works great, especially after I cleaned all the oxidation off of them. I don't get brighted when using low beams.
@@kirwankars8597 would you know why my headlight adjustment screw just keeps Turning and nothings happening? I try to turn it both ways and the lights are not moving.
@@B34GLE it's actually the internal part of the headlight itself that moves. Nothing on the outside. That is for the vertical adjustment. (On 03-07 Silverado headlights, specifically)
The point of the passenger beam being higher is to see pedestrians and street signage. They should never be “level “. If you order them level make sure to travel slower than anyone else to give pedestrians fair warning 😜
totally wrong !! Way to go! wow...you should check your info before giving out erroneous instructions. no wonder people get blinded by on coming traffic headlights.
