Title: Headlamp removal - will it require realignment?
Post by: StuF on February 06, 2015, 05:26:00 pm

Evening,
Tried to replace my xenon bulbs this afternoon with some uprated Xenarc 4300k versions - I managed to do the drivers side one no issues but the passenger side on will not unscrew after removing the igniter so the lamp unit needs to come out!

My question is - if I remove the unit will it need realigning? Or is it a case of refit, tighten up and the alignment will be unchanged?

Many thanks  :happy2:

No, won't need to be realigned if your just changing the bulb, even if you remove from the car  :happy2:
