    How to adjust Mini Cooper headlights?

    Current-generation Minis use H4 Halogen in their low beam lights, and you need to ensure you have the ignition switched off and to never, ever touch the globes with your bare hands. Open the bonnet and pop open the cover protecting the back of the headlight. Disconnect the wiring plug and unclip the wire retainer holding the globe in by pinching the open end of the clip together while swinging it out. You can then remove the globe and switch it over. Adjusting headlights should be performed by a qualified mechanic to ensure they don't blind other motorists or leave you lacking proper illumination.
