Default headlight ?

If I replace the stock bulbs with sylvanias and do it myself, do I need to have the headlights adjusted after that, or shoud I be good to just plug and play

The headlight adjustments on just about any modern car are on the actual bucket itself. They should be two screws on the headlight bucket to aim it side to side or up and down. I do not have my tC yet so I can't confirm this on a tC, but can almost garuntee you thats how it is. Don' t mess with these adjustments

The headlight bulbs should twist to unlock and pull out, and just insert the new ones. Be carefull not to touch the glass on the actual headlight bulb. The oils in your hands can cause the halogen to burn out.

I'm curious on this too. I changed my bulbs to some Raybrig's, and my friend is telling me its probably not aligned. i'm looking in the manual and it doesn't indicate some alignment, so yah, if anyone can answer this, that would be great

I don't want to stand out in the rain just to see if there is some way to align it. ok thanks :D

Mine came from the factory not aligned correctly. You'll probably need a phillips screwdriver to adjust your headlights--if you take it to the dealership and ask them to adjust it, they will laugh.
