Theres two adjusters on either light, im not sure what colour they are on the VY's, (I havent adjusted mine yet??!!) I think they are little black nobs/ or 10mm nuts, just turn it either way, and watch the light move up and down,
I think you can see them from the top of the light with the bonnet open, there is cut outs in the radiator support, to allow you to adjust them.. if not there, at the back of the light, facing upwards, maybe one in the radiator support panel, and one from behind?!


Do you have a multimeter?? you can do a few tests, on either light to see if they have the same voltage getting to them, and the same resistance in the earth circuit, it maybe could even be a dodgey relay half burnt out/corroded, try swapping the relays over from right headlight to left, in the fuse box under the bonnet.. see if the dull light changes over to the left..

No props bud, lol, yeah once you know what you're looking for you can find them easy, did that make a difference??


Nahh no changes to the exhaust yet, still the stock SS one, dont know which to change, the middle's or the rear??!!
I'm thinking the middle's, but dont really want to do it incase it sounds too loud/droney?

Which one are you thinking of changing??

im thinking about just changing the rear, as it'll proli be the easiest and cheapest because the fronts would be hard to just change as the pipe is'nt lined up. like one end of the muffler the pipe goes in on the right side and on the other end the pipe comes out on the side side but proli do the rear section.

He said they could do one for about $200, so just wondering whether 2 hot dogs would be the go or a small straight thru muffler. i think the muffler would be better for cutting out drone :D

Ahh yeah, thats probly the way to go, I forgot what they looked like - the pipes offset on the mufflers..
Are you thinking of doing that soon?? lol, I want to know how it sounds, haha...

Hmm, not sure which would be better, probly like you said the straight through muffler, to help keep the drone down, but still open it up a little..
