i was just out trying to align my headlights, but without a stubby screwdriver, i couldn't really do anything. it was all in haste, as it was raining, and i was in a hurry.

so anyway, i got back to my dorm, and i cracked open the haynes manual to see what really aims the headlight horizontally and vertically. it mentions that 1991 and later sentra's have level's built into the headlight. i didn't see it when i was out there...:confused:

anyway....just wondering if maybe se-r's don't have them?

I have a '92 SE-R and it didn't have any levels in the headlights. I've since switched to '93-94 headlights which do have the levels.

Instead of using a screwdriver try a ratchet with an 8mm socket ... which is a helluva lot easier. :D

ahh good.... a ratchet does work! like i said...it was dark, i was acting in haste, and all i was able to see was the slots for a screw driver. also nice to know that i'm not going crazy and that there are no levels in my headlights. thanks ziegler :)
