Here in Belgium the lower lights are installed as standard running lights and the upper 2 in the cockpit
solely for Highbeam. The idea is visibility. I like to lower the beam of the upper lights so it doesn't bother passing traffic. Anybody knows if they are adjustable so I can use all 4 toghetter?
Probably under cockpit but since they are high beams for Europe it could be they aren't adjustable at all.

The Shop manual says for European models; mark a wall at the following heights above the ground:
1. 828mm
2. 810mm
3. 464mm
4. 452mm
Position the Spyder 10 meters from the marked wall. For High beam the focus point of the light should be between marks 1 and 2 above. For Low beam the focus point of the light should be between marks 3 and 4 above. Adjusting the lower lights requires a long Phillips screwdriver inserted into the air duct below the lower lights. The manual states that light adjustment should be made with a weight of 91 kg. on the seat. Hope this helps. :bigthumbsup:

Thx for the info, I adjusted them in my garage 'on sight' for the moment.
So all at 460mm at 10 meters and I'm good. Now the hard part; finding a person who weights 91 kgs exactly ;D
