FlrSupra Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Question after question.. I know. Please be friendly ok Here in Finland where I live we have to have electrical angle adjustment for headlights. How does the Supra`s electric headlight angle adjustment work? My car is J-spec Facelift SZ-R I have this button on the dash: http://gto.kuvat.fi/kuvat/ajovalokorkeus1.jpg/full .. which I believe is headlight angle adjustment button. My headlights have the motor, but there is no absolutely no single wire near headlights that I can connect to them. Where do the wires go? I assume I have some wires or connection possibilities because of that button on the dash? Thanks again for your help in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lude Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 that isnt angle headlight, thats the switch that makes the mirrors fold in & out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlrSupra Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 (edited) Guess I`ll have to make this a new question. How do I connect my headlight`s electric angle adjustment to work? Tried search, but did not find straightforward answer :/ EDIT: found answers from US supra-forums, but stumped into the next problem. It`s really not that easy to make one with no electrical skills myself. Has somebody made harness to make those headlight height adjuster motors to work?

I never knew the supra had this function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for your help in advance Did you think it was just a coincidence that your mirrors folded in when you flicked the switch?

TTRickeh Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 There are headlight adjustment motors? I thought there were just a couple of bolts you turned manually at the headlights themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 There are headlight adjustment motors? I thought there were just a couple of bolts you turned manually at the headlights themselves. Some of the export specs had adjustable headlamp aim. Not sure if they were present on the UK spec, but they were available. It needs the loom though, which is the tricky part if the car didn't come with adjustable headlamps originally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Not sure if they were present on the UK spec The UK headlights have the motors in them, so I assume the UK Supras have the adjustment as standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlrSupra Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 Yep. Found out it`s standard on UK Spec and I currently have UK-spec glass headlights which do have the motor. Unfortunately my J-Spec Facelift doesn`t have any buttons or wires to make the headlight motors work so it`s bit tricky to do it. and MORE unfortunately is that it is REQUIRED here in Finland to have electrical height adjustment motors (and button inside the cabin) from -95 upwards. This is going to be a loooooong project. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=531953&highlight=EURO (See post #40 for DIY-guide) Anyone care to make it for me?

Westcoaster Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Any European market Supra from 16/10/1995 should have electrically adjusted headlights to cope with different load levels. It's part of ECE Regulation 48 on Car Lighting click Self levelling suspensions are exempted btw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
