Hello,
first time here and it seems like an active site.
I replaced the headlight bulb on my 2008 express van.
I did a search and someone put up a link to changing the headlights but it says I may not view it.
Any way, after replacing the bulb the headlight is not aimed like the driver's side.
it is pointing somewhat down.
all I did was remove the two bolts, slide the assembly forward enough to reach behind and replace the bulb.
The assembly has two plastic brackets on the bottom that sit on another bracket and the two bolts on top.
The search i did gave a link for aiming the lights but again I may not view it.
I can't find any adjustment screws and I am pretty sure the assembly was put back in as originally installed.
any help is appreciated.

thanks,
david

welcome to the forum. is it possible to get a pic of the front view of the assembly and behind it? maybe another set of eyes could be of help. im sure technology has changed since. but on my dads 97 g3500 there is a metal bracket that surrounds the headlight to hold it in and there are 2 other screws that are for adjustment. i accidentally turned one of them a couple turns but wasnt enough to do anything. maybe this will help.

Thank you for the reply.
I'll see what I can do about a pic.

I think I fixed it.
I did not seat the bulb socket properly and evidently with that being cockeyed it throws off the reflection of the bulb. As it is behind that silver bullet thing inside the assembly
I found the adjustment screw.
Beside the hood bumper stop, there is a quarter sized access hole. If you look down that hole that is where the adjustment screw is located.
I did not change that setting, yet.
I'll see tonight when it is dark.
thanks,
david

Update...
That is what it was. The bulb holder was not properly seated in the headlight assembly.
I am a happy camper.
