Headlight allignment - where to go?

Lord Nikon

Can someone recommend me a place that alligns headlights, preferably the cheapest too please.

North Kildare/South Dublin area would suit the best.

Lord Nikon

Anyone?

€25 for 10 min work. Not bad going

Google for instructions on it. I found instruction for my E34 a few months ago. Very easy to do yourself. The car was NCT'd just after I aligned them and they were bang on.

Strange how you both drive BM's, and I drive an E39 myself. Thanks for the info guys

On the E34, park the car 10m from a vertical surface. Measure the height above ground to the centers of the four lights and distance between them.
Transfer these measurements to the wall.
The main beam hot spot should be centered on the measurements, and the intersection of the angle on the cutoff for the low beam should be 12cm below the measurement.

I imagine the E39 is the same

KwikFit trying to charge €30 for headlight allignment? Surley this is a crazy price?! Is it really a €30 job? Me being too lazy to do it myself can anyone recommend a place in south Dublin for cheap?
