Headlight adjustment

Headlight adjustment
I installed my HID’s Friday night. They look great but the beam pattern is off on one side. Im using the helios hids with the stock 2000 capsules. I know it’s not the Hid’s because it was doing it with the old PIAA bulbs. It’s just more noticeable now because they are brighter. Im trying to get my camera back from my buddy so I can post some pics, but has anyone else had this happen… the beam pattern is normal until you get to the far right side _____/ and it jumps up at about a 45 degree angle.
Basically is there anyway to adjust the headlight any other ways except for the white ***** on the back of the headlight? Ill try to post some pics later.

That is really weird why it does that. Its like my headlight is winking... I don’t think there is a glare or if there is its not alot I parked in a parking lot and walked around to get different views and it looks great. Also no one has flashed me yet. Yes I am using the stock housing. How do you like the 5000K? I decided on the 6000K for the headlights and fogs…

the HID 5000K is good.... really really white.... no hint of blue at all. I was debating between the 5000 and 6000 but i figure i'd go for the 5000 for the better visibility but i doubt there is even a difference. I must say though... I drove it for about 2 weeks now, I did get flashed one time... but that was it.... I don't think the glare is bad at all. I drove behind my friends STI and accord and I asked if I was blinding them. They said it was fine and not blinding at all.

As for the reason why the passanger headlight is higher than the driver's side, its because of the oncoming traffic.
Belive me I had the same problem before (mine is still a little glary this is because I have D2R HID bulbs in my 00 factory headlight)
