HI people,
I just want to ask is there any way to realign the low and high beams to be together on a 300ce-24? On mine, the high beams are currently pointed upwards and the low beams are dead centre like it should be. I understand my levelling switch inside the car isn't working and know I can adjust from behind the headlamps, but adjusting manually moves them both at the same time which is not what I want. Any tips or do I need to fix the levelling switch in order to resolve this?

No, I believe that they have a double filament lamp and the lamp moves with the reflector during under bonnet or remote adjustment.

Re: Highbeam adjustment?
So I guess I was on the money that it adjust both of them at the same time, thanks for clearing things up. Just thought there might be some secret adjuster lying around somewhere...

I did mine as per this tutorial and the improvement just by adjusting
it to the correct angle is absolutely phenomenal.....
