   Hi All;
Anyone now the easiest way to adjust headlights for european driving (318) and back again?
While I'm here, the ventilation control unit often, intermittently and unpredictably locks up or loses power thus I either cook or freeze.
Help

	You don't mention what model you have. On the E30, you just loosen a couple of screws and twist the headlamp units round a bit. Then tighten the screws. Genius! Much better than sticking black tape all over the headlights.

	Thats the same on the E34, I wouldnt be suprised if the clever Germans have put that on all models.
	Best Wishes Nigel

	Apparently they improved on later models to a simple flick of a lever. The screws are great but a bit of tight fit until you get used to it. hint - Stubby screwdriver. Oh and strong fingers if the screws haven't been lossened since the car was built.
