Having changed the bulbs which has been very effective, they are not quite level, where are the levelling screws, the manual says go to a garage!  Secondly I see you can pop out the front lens,  what the best way of popping out and do you need a lubricant to reseal the glass.  many thanks,

dont try and remove the round projector lense, it cracks very easily, to clean it use some meths or similar on a cotton rag and feed it behind the lense

On the article that Simmo linked you can see the two adjusting screws at the top of one of the pics - a pair of yellowish coloured screws - almost like bolts really (M10 size iirc).

Were they not quite level before or just since changing the bulbs? You can put them in wrong (with the flat on the bulb flange not located correctly) so that they don’t sit flat in the housing.

Thanks for help from everyone, will check fitting but am sure they were Ok, can't say I noticed before, you always check when you change anything, it is only very slightly out, its just that I like things perfect.
