How to adjust the headlights in the Smart ForTwo?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Headlight

Adjusting the headlight in the Smart ForTwo is very simple, to do this we need a 4mm Allen key or, alternatively, a flat-tip screwdriver. As indicated in the attached video, the adjustment of the headlight consists in unscrewing and screwing the white plastic nut placed in the upper part of each bulb unit. In this way we can adjust the vertical inclination of the light beam. Remember to carry out the adjustment tests by pointing the headlights towards a white wall, in order to correctly view the illuminated area and carry out a correct calibration.
