Aiming your Headlights
how does one get around to adjusting the correct height for the xenons? after i got it lowered, i raised the beam..its shines fine now, but i keep thinking to myself that its kinda high...is there a specific distance that i should measure from and a particular height? or should i just base it back on people flashing me...cause no one has flashed me yet...but when i switch to my high-beams, they shine like literally into the trees...

idk i guess its all personal preference. lolz if ur high beams are shining in the trees, then maybe you should lower them just a bit.

It's not a matter of personal preference, there is a law for the proper aiming of headlights. Look at the adjusting headlights thread in the DIY compilation thread, it will tell you what to do.

I just looked at mine, there is one adjusting point that I can see. It is right behind the light housing and on a slight angle. It's the typical kind that you work with a #2 phillips.
