    Question DC5 Headlight Adjustment

    Hey guys, i've got HIDs but they spray everywhere. I've adjusted them downwards but was wondering when you adjust them, does it adjust just the bulb or the whole headlight?

    Also the futher you adjust it downwards, will the bottom of the headlight reflect the beam upwards?

    Well have u got OEM headlights??
    Take it to a Auto Elec to adjust.. they will do it properly... if it sprays aswell which it would in OEM Headlights then they'll adjust it again...
    OEM Headlights and HIDS don't work in a DC5

    JDM OEM Headlights & HID's Pure Sexy cause they work right.
    They have a different pattern to our headlights which prevents the spray since they come factory with HID's

    yeah ive done all the adjusting guys, the only problem is that there is no defined beam cutoff, it still sprays everywhere. The lower i adjust the beam, the higher it seems to be reflecting?

    That ain't your fault buddy, thats what we got with our AUDM Headlights... AUDM reflectors in a DC5 are terrible... they just spray everywhere and there really isnt much you can do.

    hey OP

    dont listen to watajk

    since you adjusted it a bit lower it shouldn't blind on coming traffic

    you might have a slight problem if the other car is coming up a hill other than that you're good to go
