The headlights adjustment of the Volkswagen Golf can be done by inserting the ignition key into the corresponding slot: once the instrument panel is turned on, it will be possible to use the ring located on the left side of the dashboard next to the steering wheel.

By lifting this ring upwards, it will be possible to raise the headlights and direct the beam of light upwards; conversely, it will be possible to lower the headlights by lowering the ring and directing the beam downwards.

Finally, the operation can be closed by turning off the instrument panel.
