Aiming Headlights

[daveray9]

I know on the 13+ models there is a hole for you to stick a 7mm socket into and it adjusts the height of the projector headlights. I have a 2012 and upgraded to the projector lights, but dont seem to have a hole that lines up with the adjuster screw.

Anyone with the older gen 4's able to adjust these without taking them off the truck?!

Nope. On my 2009 I had to drill a new hole in the fender that lined up with the projector headlights adjustment screw.

Ya I figured it out right after I posted it. What kind of drill bit did you use, and did you put any paint on it after or anything to prevent it from rusting?

Honestly I don't remember. It's been four years since I had to do that. I don't recall doing anything for rust because I've always lived in the southern states so I didn't worry about that.

Sold the truck and driving a 2014 now.

Hmmm...where is this hole?

There are two holes with arrows pointing to them. Its the one closer to the front of the truck.

You can use clear nail polish or touch up paint to seal the metal edges after drilling.
