Rock Auto Head Light Assemblys

For those that have used these, did you need to align the headlights?

Isn't a headlight alignment pretty much a default next step after replacing one? Kinda like replacing a tie-rod means you need a wheel alignment?

IMO, a new headlight isn't a drop in and go situation. But realigning them is pretty easy.

Realigning is very easy, that said, every aftermarket lamp set I have ordered was aimed right when I got them. Both TYC and Depo.

Depo for were aimed up to the tree line. You'll know if people start flashing you at night.

I got the TYC ones. I will install and do a quick check against my garage door to see if they seem good. Thanks!
