Replying to: rmcbain (Jun 10, 2009 7:52 am) oh, and by the way...despite the fact that i have been blatantly told that there is no side-to side adjustment, I found what appears to be a horizontal adj. screw. I could test it because it requires a stubby screwdriver and i didnt have one handy. But, if you look at the look beam enclosures from inside, there is a screw head at about the 5 o'clock position on the passenger side (7 o'clock driver's side). With the bulb out, you can peer into the housing and see a long shaft. The appearance alone suggests an adjusting screw as does it's placement. If you try it and it does work, let us know.

I've been waiting for your response to my response to your response. Perhaps you didn't see it first time around. See below.   #2946 of 2947     Re: adjusting headlights [rmcbain] by majbach     Jun 15, 2009 (8:55 pm)     Save | Reply   Replying to: rmcbain (Jun 10, 2009 8:52 am) Well thanks for the info 'McBain". I spent much of this evening comparing some high end Halogen bulbs and the bottom line is there is barely a noticeable difference from standard bulbs - certainly not worth the extra $$$. So, after reading your post I am going to give HIDs a shot. I've been talking to people here and there and many say that e-bay is the place to go for HID kits BUT all kits aren't the same quality. Do you have any advice on purchasing HIDs?
#2949 of 2966 2007 Santa Fe New Owner Question by thegraduate Jul 06, 2009 (6:33 am)
Hey all,   My girlfriend has a "new"Santa Fe, a 2007 GLS model with heated leather, 2WD. Does this model have automatic door locks? She's in the process of obtaining a manual, but in the meantime I was going to try and program these since I'd read about them.   Any info is most appreciated. Thank you!   TheGrad Replies to this message: bellefant (Jul 06, 2009 6:55 am) thegraduate (Jul 06, 2009 7:04 am) tenpin288 (Jul 07, 2009 3:03 pm) thegraduate (Jul 07, 2009 7:07 pm)

Replying to: thegraduate (Jul 06, 2009 6:33 am) The 2007 did not come with automatic door locks, however, Hyundai decided to offer it to customers at no charge. I took mine in to get an oil change and told them what I had read. They did it on the spot with no questions. Now the doors lock automatically at 5mph. Another fix that they offer for that model is the interior lights. They will make it so your map lights will come on with the dome lights when unlocking and opening the doors. Makes a big difference! Both of these fixes where offered free from Hyundai and I had no problems getting either done. Did have to wait on parts for the lights. Good luck!

Replying to: bellefant (Jul 06, 2009 6:55 am) Any idea if they'd still do this, considering we're bumping up against the 2010 models? She just got the car, but it only has 16,000 miles on it, and has had some warranty work done at a dealership already (CD Player quit working and sunglasses holder wouldn't latch closed).   I appreciate your help!   TheGrad

Replying to: thegraduate (Jul 06, 2009 6:33 am) grad,   As far as the manual is concerned, you can download it in pdf format from Hyundai. Go to http://www.hmaservice.com and register there. Once you log in, go to service information then select OM. Once there you can select the manual you want, even back to the original Excel!   p.s. be sure to check out the site requirements on that page. You need to use IE and add a few plug-ins.

#2953 of 2966 Flashing Red Light on dash by 09safelim Jul 07, 2009 (5:46 pm)
We just bought an 09 SF 2wd Limited yesterday. The manual shows the two sensors up on the dash by the windshield to be Automatic Light Sensors. The sensor up on the driver's side flashes a red light. I called the Customer Service No. Hyundai and the CS agent did not know what the flashing light indicated. Is it actually for the lights or is it indicating a Keyless Entry System or something? Anyone know?? Other than that the only thing I notice is the average mpg seems to be irratic. Thanks. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Jul 07, 2009 7:06 pm)

Replying to: 09safelim (Jul 07, 2009 5:46 pm) The flashing light in the driver's side "bulb" is indeed the security system. It will be on for long durations when "arming," right after locking the car. Then should flash in regular intervals, being off more than it is on.

Replying to: tenpin288 (Jul 07, 2009 3:03 pm) Thanks tenpin,   She actually got the manual today, no charge for it.

Replying to: rmcbain (Jun 10, 2009 7:52 am) Did your lights burn out and you disappear into the darkness? It's impossible to reach you. Wanted to ask what kind of HIDs you have and also tell you I found a lateral adjustment for the lights. Replies to this message: rmcbain (Nov 07, 2009 9:39 am)
