Subject:SA headlight aiming
From:John Rodgers

I'm getting ready to aim the headlights on my SA grille installation. I
tool a look at them last night, and the driver side outboard light is
waaay out. From a distance it's like looking into the sun. I'm gonna
enjoy these lights!!

But a question?

To avoid spending a lot of time jockeying that light around, can someone
tell me which adjusting screw does what on the lamp.

When looking at the lamp from the front - there is an adjusting screw at
the upper right, and another at the lower left. I take it these are
vertical and horizontal adjusters, but which does what. And in each
case, what does turning the screw in or out do. Which way might I expect
the lamp to move. Screw it in - the beam goes up. Screw it out - the
beam goes down. or something like that.

Thanks,

John
