If you can adjust them from in the car they are electric.

If you buy manual headlights you cannot adjust them from within the car only from the back of the headlight.

Well if they're electrically adjusted they'll have the little 'cog' on the back that goes against the headlight adjuster motor.

If it's just a circle of plastic I'd say it's just a case of putting your head under the bonnet and doing it.

ok cheers, I have the electric adjusters as i can adjust them from in the car but on the back of the adjuster there is a little white circle which adjusts them too.... So I'm confused lol, as they seem to be both manual and electric :s lol

Not extremely clear there mate.

If you're asking if the ones you have are electric or manual - if you have the switch (one beside the headlight switch) to adjust them it'll be electric.

If the ones you're looking at buying are manual, you'll have to adjust them under the bonnet as you said. Once they're set you'll never need to touch them again tbh.

Hi, I have a 1 200 model corsa b... Looking at some new headlights... It says they're for manual adjusting headlights... Just wondering what mine will have, it has the adjuster inside for when you have weight in the rear but you can adjust them from under the bonnet on the back of the adjusters "manually"...

So what are they??

Cheers Carl..
