Default Anybody have a Crossfire with the adjustable headlamp option?

According to my '05 OEM Servce Manuals, there is available (dont' know what market) a vertical thumbwheel that is located next to the headlamp switch that when adjusted up or down, the headlamps adjust accordingly. True!
Anybody out there got this?
Just curious....

I have never heard of this.

I do not believe it to be true, but I could be proven wrong.

I have never heard of this.
Service manuals are a wealth of information, including features and hidden options that otherwise go unnoticed. I have made it a point to own the service manuals for all my recent car purchases over the years for this reason alone. I'm guessing the option is available in other markets like the UK or Asia. These cars are sold around the world with each market having different safety regulations, expectations and standards.
Unfortunately this forum is dominated by American and Canadian owners so we only ever hear about our own Crossfires, assuming they are all the same.

I wonder what else is hidden in these manuals?

U.K. market Crossfires have this option. Required for "fine tuning" the dipped lamp height.

Anything else you have that we don't have? I'm guessing you have Daytime Running Lights as does Canadian models?

The first aid kit comes in handy after trips to the pool I hear.

Hi Tonygg

No standard day time light in the UK , but i have installed Angel Eyes myself,

FP i was thinking your steering wheel was on the right hand side , but you always seat on the left & just worked the gears .


Cheers
