Do we have hid auto level?

[1024GT]

Sorry,
Still learning about this car but:
My previous M3 and wife's Cadillac headlights always move and then center when starting the car. These don't seem to move ...is that right?

No the S550 Mustang doesn't have auto leveling HIDs or ones that swivel with steering turn.

No not the US version.
European version has a low beam cut-off height adjustability.

What exactly this means? When I switch to low beam, the lights show lower?

Face your car towards the side of a building. When you have your regular (low beam) headlights turned on, look at the light pattern on the building. See how high up the building the lights can go. You can adjust this height higher or lower if you wanted. Higher would raise the light pattern up on the side of the building. Lower would lower the light pattern on the side of the building.


OP, if you want auto leveling headlights, you have to go luxury car. BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, etc.

So in short...EU version has manual adjustability?

As said, no US S550 has the leveling function. I’m not sure how difficult it would be to add; but last linked thread has some info.
