   Hello there, I've just been on an mot with my saxo and it failed for a several reasons:
   -Airbag light on
   -Nearside registration number plate not working
   -Both steering rack gaiters missing
   -Offside (max adjustment) Headlamp aim too low.
   I've already dealt with all of this except the headlight and I have no idea how to do it so I would like to ask if its something that I could do myself or how much would it cost me if somebody would have done it for me?

   You could just stick a new headlight in if push comes to shove? Would cost about 15 quid

   Some saxo's have a thumbwheel adjuster near or on the bottom of the dash on the drivers side.

   Not sure if you have the same thing (or even if I'm right) but these manual adjusters might be your solution?

   If it's on max adjustment on the thing that McAndy did and you can't just use the switch that Stevo said, then it'll be easier to just get a new one from a scrapyard

   Thank you all for tue responses. Unfortunately something was cracked inside so thats why adjustment wasnt working. But i've put some rubber there under the headlight so it made the beam shone a bit higher and it passed the mot.
