Cefiro lighting question # 2
Ok, I am almost done the fitment... (I am picky) But , it seems that the lights point directly downwards.... Like, I mean, my lights are not bright what so ever.. It looks like the majority of the light goes right infront of my car ( like 5 feet). So on the back of the cefiro housings there are 2 screws to adjust them (I think)...
First of all I got no instructions with my lights.. So what does what.
There is a little screw, and a big screw.. You can turn them both... both ways.
What does the big screw adjust? What does the little screw adjust?
When I turn them clockwise.. what does it change? When I turn them counter clockwise what does it change???
Please help. I am doing this project alone, and its really hard to turn the screw and notice what is going on. Any tips would be great.

I have the smoked cefiros, and the lighting is horrible also. With mine, the two screws both did nothing to light postitioning. I'm gonna end up putting projectors in, because country roads with no lights and drunk country boys in their trucks=one crushed I30.

I believe the little screw is for moving the lights up and down. It may take a little bit but you'll get there. If I remember correctly turning it clockwise goes down and counterclockwise goes up.

If you didnt have H4's, what else could possibly fit in there? Did you just have a 9004 bulb dangling in there?

i had the same problem.. they pointed straight in front of the car.. and i tried to turn the big long screw.. and i never got anywhere.. so i went to home depot and got some washers.. and just installed the washers behind the headlights themselves (between the headlights and the body of car) on the bottom of the two screws that the headlights use to bolt up.. if that makes sense.. and now they light up the road like they should.. i used two washers per headlight (this will vary on the thickness of the washers).. but yeah.. if youre not using H4's that could also be a problem.. hopefully that helps everyone out.. fyi.. i have the smoked cefiros...i dont think that matters but just to let you know..

These lights light up the road signs on the left like your're flashing a spotlight on them. But they look sooo sweet!!
