Projector headlights adjusting question

antv20 · March 11th, 2007, 11:38 AM

Ok, got my projectors installed and they look fantastic especially since I just added a chin spoiler, but has anyone else had problems adjusting the darn things. I got these http://blueovalindustries.bluekeyinc...p?pid=99012920 .

I did replace the bulbs which was a b*tch to replace the high beam. Seem like I had turn the adjust forever to get it to make a difference.

What bulbs do you all recommend? I replaced the ones that came with it with luminics.

I have similar ones for my 98'. And I have the same problem, the low beams are just WAY too low and I have no idea how to bring them up....it sucks.

ok the little silver screw that has like a gear looking thing on it near the part of the head light closest to the center of your hood. Toward the passenger side of the car and it will raise them it take awhile but it works.

Thanks. I figured it out last night. Mine has 2 adjusters screws but I was thinking they adjusted each light up and down and did not realize that both lights are one piece. The one closest to the center like you said is up and down while the other is for lateral movement. I finally took off the drivers side headlight so I could see which way it was moving and what did what. Feel like a moron now but at least I will get the SOB pointed in the right direction now.

lol yeah mine just had the up and down.

Got the low beams somewhat adjusted well, but the damn high beams are still in the trees a bit. Wish i had just got the smoked factory ones now. D'OH!!!

GreenFaleen · March 13th, 2007, 10:35 PM

highbeams don't really get adjusted they just sort of light up everything.

antv20 · March 14th, 2007, 07:29 PM

I am hoping they will be ok. It was a bit hazy out last night.
