Projector headlights and lift

[dw_bne Lurker Find all posts View Profile Close dw_bne]

Hi all - recently did a ~50mm on my 2012 VX. Took car back to Toyota service to have the lights adjusted; way too high and getting flashed. Was told by service guy they’ve lowered them as much as they can (they’re still too high) and if I need the lights lower I should remove the lift components.

Q: Does anyone know of someone in Brisbane who could help me with this issue?

Q: Is there a way to get more adjustment from those levelling devices on the rear axle - presuming this is where the lights are adjusted from?

Hoping someone with the same problem could throw some light on the subject - pun intended!

Surprised they can’t be adjusted low enough with a 50mm lift. What are your measurements from bottom of rim to guard, front and rear.
On my 2018 build the sensor connects to driver side lower trailing arm so try looking there.

LOL... Laughable.


You need an extended link on the rear diff headlight height adjuster. TJM sell them for around $20..

Thanks chaps. Measurements F/R 805/860. Piggy, do you know if TJM will fit this part and check the height of the lights??

They would at a cost.. But its a very simple fit.. Park car back from a wall and mark eyebrow height on lights, 2 x nuts undo, replace link, 2 x nuts tighten.. Set height again, road test. Took me 10 mins on my 200.
