How to Adjust the Headlights on a BMW 535i


1. Park your BMW 535i 30 feet away from a closed garage door.
2. Shine the headlights onto the garage door.
3. Open the hood and turn the vertical adjustment screw until the center of the headlight beams are positioned at the bottom of the door--where the door meets the ground.
4. Turn the lateral adjustment screws on both headlights until the headlight beams overlap by about half (40 percent to 50 percent).
