UK headlight adjustment

[whiskychaser]

Have seen threads on adjusting US headlight but not UK. I've got two holes in the grille between dip and main beam. Can just about 'fish' two small crossheads in there. Are these up/down and the side to side at the back somewhere? Doesnt seem logical if so but you never know :D They are pretty solid so soaking with WD40 at the moment. Main beams are level but I need to adjust n/s dip up a little. Yeah I know its basic but the questions are always easy when you know the answers:)

hmmhh, I assume it is the same, only the back side with the wire connection is different.

The first link confirms the screws at the front are for up/down. I took the panel off the back to search for side to side adjusters just to confirm but couldnt see any:D I read the Honest John thread before I posted but that doesnt sound it at all. I should add that the motors work perfectly and in sync. Now they have soaked for 24hrs will give it another go. Thanks for the help!:)

Stopped messing about and took the grille off. This came in pretty handy:

Found it in an old thread so it once again proves search is your friend :D
With the grille off, you can see firing wd40 down the little holes isnt going to hit the spot. A few good squirts and moving the adjuster backwards and forwards finally got it moving. Just got to wait for it to go dark....:)
