I got mine retrofitted on my 02. From my experience in my 98 it's the best thing to do with these headlights. Git HIDs on them and they're so much better. The halos are also upgraded and had the guy hook them up so they're drl.

I got a pair of chrome housing, clear lens and only have one gear to turn. Do you know if that one gear turns both the low and high beams? If not I might have to order a new pair because the normal headlights are aiming straight at the ground

Strange. Idk. What happens when you turn it all the way in one direction and then all the way in the opposite direction?

The top dial should never be messed with. If you mess with it your projected beam won’t be straight anymore. It will be crooked . Only use bottom dial to make beams go up or down

Mine are still pretty low to this day, but I've got pretty good eye sight at night so I don't have to drive around with my brights on. Did you end up getting a different set of headlights?

One thing i noticed was the car was out on your possibly angled down away driveway from garage and you were aiming at the level pad of the garage also? How bout using garage door. Possibly go to level street put tape on your pants and take steps back away.

You might be right! This did occur to me after the fact. If that's the case, then both bulbs can only be adjusted in one plane (horizontal OR vertical) do you know which one? I might need to investigate and redo this video.

@@santosaleman7060 When I got mine around when they first released them on the site I called and was told the top gear was for high beams and the bottom gear was to adjust vertical position of projected light. I just got a plug and play LED kit for the car and hacked them into these headlamps, needless to say they still suck. After years of barely being able to see I'm replacing these with some chinesium off Amazon.

Yeah, I'm still just dealing with low visibility. The tint has started to wear off so eventually I will probably just switch them out with some other headlights.
