Default How to adjust the STI 2006 Headlights

I saw a topic on this not too long ago but I can't find it. My headlights are too low and would like to adjust them.

The 05's have a knob to the left of the steering wheel. The 06's do not have this?

They do, but even then sometimes it isnt good enough.

That is right, is not good enough. If I can bring them up a little that should do it.

On your headlight assembly there's a spot where you can use a phillips screwdriver to adjust the height of the assembly. Make sure you have both of them equally adjusted. Park the car in front of a wall about ten feet away so you see them adjust. It looks like two gears next to each other. I put mine up and drive with the setting down a few notches, but when I'm alone on the highway I can raise them up without using brights, its a nice change. Good luck.
