Aiming C3 Headlights

[rmonty]

Has anyone run across a good manual or web site that describes how to properly aim headlights on a C3? I searched CAC and found a couple of threads for non-C3 cars, but they didn't seem to be what I am looking for.

I don't drive my '79 at night too often, but when I do it seems the headlights are out of whack.

Thanks!

I don't know about specific schematics on light projection, but the easiest and best way is to park the car in front of your CLOSED garage door in the dark and start adjusting the beams with your phillips head screwdriver. You want them to point down just a tad and a bit more to the right. This will keep from blinding oncoming traffic and illuminate the shoulder of the road just a tick more. Make sure and cycle low and high beam while adjusting, then take the car for a quick ride. It shouldn't take but about 2-3 adjustments to get them perfect.
