Bedroom slider and headlight adjustment updates

I've mentioned both of these in previous posts so wanting to update .

The bedroom would not slide out when I was in Flagstaff last week, temperature in the teens. I removed the mattress and platform plywood cover to expose the mechanism. I used dawn detergent that comes out of the pump container in a foam on a paintbrush to clean the rails. it worked great. Even though I sprayed it last time with lubricant designed for sliders it still gunked up. I sprayed the rails and main screw with another product that claims to prevent gunk build-up, we shall see.

Headlight upgrade. I was considering adding fog lights but went with headlight revolution's LED upgrade. On my last and maiden voyage with my new lights I noticed I was lighting up the off ramp signs from a distance. I went last night to a local shopping area, found a wall I could pull up to and using the tape and 25 foot distance method I adjusted my lights down . Now, I hadn't had anyone flashing back at me but the lights were going too high. They were staying in my lane and to the right of the lane. I took a ride down a real dark road and the difference is amazing. The stock lights were dull and pale, the LED's are great.

Nice work. There's nothing like taking care of this stuff yourself.

It would be MUCH better if you updated those previous threads with this additional information. It is not too late to do that now.
