Ok so I'm goin down a little dark road at about 60 and I can't really see but 30-40 feet ahead of me cauz my headlights are pointed down too much. I see this patch of road that looks odd...as I get closer and my lights finally hit it I realize that its a big goose walking across the road. I slammed on my breaks, It jumped and started to fly and slammed into my windshield. I slowed down enough that it didn't damage my windshield but still, it could have been a dog or kid or somethin...I need my headlights to shine just a little farther ahead of the car so I can see stuff commin. So if ya know how to do this on an s14 leme know...thanks

if you look at your headlights, there should be two screws on each. One on the side, and one on the top or bottom. the one on the top or bottom adjusts the angle of the headlights. Just be careful that you don't aim them too high, you'll have people high-beaming you all the time. I've got that problem at the moment, but I'm too lazy to readjust them
