In my case, about 1/2 to 3/4 CCW turn with philips screwdriver did the trick - now headlights aim just a little higher on each side… Importantly, I am not getting flashed by oncoming drivers while using the low-beam headlights.
I ended up adjusting mine by 0.5 turns and they're great now. I guess yours could be even worse from the factory than mine were.
Especially since upgrading to ADB (adaptive driving beam) headlights. Dynamic Light Assist (DLA) in VW speak. Best mod ever. If you drive at night, this is a game changer for night vision, spotting deer etc.
Guys, I have successfully retrofitted genuine SEL Premium LED headlights to the car. This was the most challenging retrofit I'd ever done, not because of the wiring, but because of the coding and troubleshooting.
Headlights on this car are probably one of the better ones.
So, I opened my headlights on my 17. It is like others have said a painful process. Main reason is because the factory glue sealing the headlights is very difficult to melt, I had to bake my lights for quite a while to get it to loosen up. And even then the factory glue is basically impossible to get all the way off. Putting it back together isn\u2019t bad, I know some people have condensation issues but I\u2019ve never had any issues with that, plus from the factory there are already drain holes/air holes in the housing anyways.
In my experience, the headlights aren't bad but I liked the ones on my 2017 more. The 2020 has a brighter light, but it doesn't look like as much of the road in front of me is illuminated.
I constantly get flashed by oncoming cars in my Ranger and it's not high beams. It fucking sucks. I asked at the service and they said nah standard angling.
I had a FiST '14 in the past and the headlights were like two candles. I am in Europe, so I had Euro headlights. I've tried both reflector and projector headlights, without big difference. I've also replaced the bulbs with different options that helped but too less. Unfortunately the headlights on the Fiestas are really bad comparing with other vehicles.
I’ve been dealing with the same issue for months. Got into a minor fender bender that led to the driver’s side headlight being replaced. The first had damage to the high beam, the second arrived with a scratch across the lens, number 3 filled with condensation that turned into huge water droplets within a day, and number 4 is doing the same. All OEM headlights directly through VW.
