not too sure about the FD, but in some cars, you can sorta aim the headlight down by adjusting the screws behind the lights...

I reckon the FD's glare is quite minimal.. if that bothers you.. get the aftermarket eagle eyes which has a projector..

reflector style head lights will almost always blind on coming drivers due to the "reflectors"
Aiming it down will help a little but not a whole lot.

Best bet is to get projector style headlights. :)

look at my DIY thread,
it should give you a rough idea of what to look for if you have it
