Hey guys, so I noticed after I dropped the car on the tein coilovers, the output of my HIDs decreased noticeably. Less light is covering the road than before. So Im guessing the only thing to remedy this is to aim the low beams? How do I go about doing this? I know you got to turn those ***** behind the light but I tried and they dont budge

Is there a specific place this needs to be done? I.e., in front of a wall, distance etc etc?

How many of you dropped guys actually re-aimed your headlights?

thanks in advance

exactly what I needed! thanks man

 

i need to do this too

 

The plastic adjustment piece broke off on one of my lights so I jammed a socket to where it was attached to and adjusted that way.

 

I adjusted my Headlights down slightly due to the HID 8000K bulb upgrade, I didn't notice any major shortcomings with my Illuminas/Progress setup initially. I also upgraded the foglights to 8000K HID and made provisions to the foglight backing plate so I can adjust the foglights while installed on the car. I had to fill that void from the front of the car up to the the headlight aft sectional beam! Now one big blanket of intense light and suprme coverage!!!!

triple post FTL

 

lol...

Im going to get around to aiming them. I just recently put 8ks in the low beams and fogs (best HID color imo) and while it looks great, theres just not much of it hitting the ground. I love the hint of blue with 8k HIDs

 

the system was hanging up and yes I double clicked the submit reply tab...your response was from a loser...

 

im only joking around man lol .. i could care less i just thought it was funny..and i need to reaim my headlights/fogs because i just lowered yesterday on illumina/progress

 

It's because of the 8,000K, at that level you are pushing a tiny bit more light than halogen. In the snow and rain it's not going to be fun driving at night.
