graystang01 · November 26th, 2007, 02:16 PM

Xantho99 · November 26th, 2007, 02:34 PM

I have them... I have the same problem, only to low... But I don't know how to adjust them...

Onemanzu · November 26th, 2007, 04:54 PM

wait they don't adjust the same way that normal lights do?? see if you can pop that sucker out and tinker with it a bit... btw you won't be able to send it back either most big companies run a no return policy once the box is opened

This type of stiff belongs in the visual section

graystang01 · November 27th, 2007, 10:17 AM

EasyE64 · November 27th, 2007, 10:25 AM

WLJohnson05 · November 27th, 2007, 10:46 AM

graystang01 · November 27th, 2007, 10:47 AM

graystang01 · November 27th, 2007, 10:47 AM

ive emailed em 4 times in the past 3 days and i cant get a reply

Onemanzu · November 27th, 2007, 12:24 PM

I don't know man i have never had projectors to European for me... you tried turning the knob? did it look threaded and meant for turning? also does everything else line up correctly?

graystang01 · November 27th, 2007, 01:18 PM

yea i guess its meant 4 turning... its sticking out farther than the one on the other light. its kinda annoying and i really need 2 fix it. im afraid im just gonna hafta take it 2 a garage and pay them 2 fix it

since u guys are all suffereing i decided to go into my garage and look in all those boxes to find my projectors to help u guys out here ya go..this is for 99-04 i dont know how the other models work bu hope this helps

basic picture of a projecotr headlamp

there is a screw behind the headlamp on the inner corner

u can either stick a phillips head screw driver and turn just like the oem headlights

or u can turn it from the back with a socket ..

park like 5-8 feet from a wall or garage door and aim ur beams to it adjust both headlamps as needed

projectors have really sucky beams thats why i swithced back to oem but have fun and enjoy hope it helped

Murderjetz · November 28th, 2007, 11:38 PM

my projectors are non-adjustable. They're terribly aimed and that's just how they are. You can only adjust the position of the entire headlight assembly by adjusting the three black clips that hold it in place, but that doesn't help much because the low beam is pointed way too low and high beam is pointed way too high. you can't adjust them independantly.

ROUSHME's lights are the first projectors i've ever seen that actually seem to be fully adjustable...depends on which ones you have I guess.

ROUSHME661 · November 28th, 2007, 11:49 PM

all the projectors i have seen are like mine they all have an adjustment screw

Onemanzu · November 29th, 2007, 12:28 AM

see thats what i thought i was pretty damn sure there was a nut on the back that you could twist

ROUSHME661 · November 29th, 2007, 12:58 AM

yea like i said all the ones ive seen are like that .. if u guys need any more pics let me know before i put it back into the garage lol
