Question about projectors (possible to switch low and high position?)

Is it possible to switch the position of the low-beam and high-beam units? The projectors look like this: \oO=Oo/ I was wondering if it'd be possible to switch the position of the beam units from the above illustration to: \Oo=oO/

I'd rather have it go from large to small, instead of large to small -- it just looks much more neater and nicer. Is it possible without having to do anything heavy?

You can't do that because it is already molded to that specific shape.

I think they'd look much more aggressive if they looked like \Oo=oO/ I think it's how the Mazda6 has its lights set up. Ahh, well.

I believe that it is actually the law to have the High beams set inside the low beams.

The Low beam has to be closer to the grill he means...the high beams have to be closer to the fenders.... (That's just what i got from his words)
