Part: Headlight

In this tutorial, we will see how to adjust the headlights on a Ford Focus, a very simple and quick operation. First, position the vehicle in front of a light-coloured wall, then turn on the ignition, activate the headlights, and open the bonnet. Next, locate the two white plastic screws on the upper side of both headlights, and use an Allen key to tighten or loosen them to adjust the beam to the desired position.
