Exclamation *Headlight Problem*

I just purchased the SVT Light set (Headlights, Corners, and Tails) Anyway...after intalling them...I realized that when driving, my low beams seemed EXTREMELY LOW and my HIGH beams seem like they are low beams. I tried taking them out to be sure i didn't align them improperly on the brackets.

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to solve this problem or is this normal?

Thanks for any help or advice.

have you tried just re-aiming them? As I recall there are little bolts coming out of the headlight assembly that use about a 4mm socket, you turn them one way and the headlight goes up, turn it the other way it goes down.

Use the 4mm socket and check the distance from the mount to the end of the threads. Make sure ts the same as the old ones you took out.

Yup same thing happend with mine when i put them in, they were aimed way low. So i took them back out and compared the adjustment screws to the ones on my stock lights and found that they were way off. I just started to turn them untill they were the same distance as on my stock lights and put them back in and they were aimed perfectly.

Do what I did...

Take the aimer dealies out of the stock lights and put them in your new ones. Therefore they are aimed like they were from the factory There are just a few clips on the deals and they pop right out and in.

Later... don't crash
