To thoese with MR JDM Headlights

I just recently put these on my car, I knew the cut off beam was different then ours but i didn't think it was that big of a difference..

Has anyone figured a way to light up more of the Right hand side of the street or is this the way i gotta deal with it....

you mean how to aim them? i believe those metal bolts on the above and below the bulbs are to adjust them, i myself have just installed these lights as well and still i have to reposition the right headlamp level.

You won't be able to adjust the cutoff pattern, unless you rip the headlights apart and modify the sheilds. You didn't realize what you were getting into, did ya?

Im still debating on if i wanna sell them or not, But i will let you know if i do..

To adjust them you dont use the bolts, You put a Phillips screw driver in the little box by the plug..

No i didn't know what i was getting myself into, I really wish the sites that sold these would of put it in with the description..

Ohhh i know im blinding them , i can see it in there face

Could you post a pic of the cutoff against a wall?

I'm assuming it looks like a reversed image of this?
