#23028, "Peeps with projectors....do your high beams work??"


          

Cuz mine suck ass. The lows are cool, but when I hit the high beams it seems as if all the extra light just goes through the turn signals and up in the sky (lighting up trees and shit) instead of on the road ahead. Mine are from procarparts.com if that makes a difference.

they adjust using the brass screws on the back right?? Cuz I messed around with those one day and they didnt seem to adjust any according to the little bubble thingy (for lack of a better term, hehe)

There should be a gear like screw on top of the projectors where the bubble (level indicator?) thing is. Just park somewhat close to a wall or something flat and turn the screw until it moves.

Yeah - I also have the Projector from procarparts.com and my High Beam was hitting the 3rd floor of apartment complex.

I just adjusted them. It's pretty easy. The gear like knob next to the High Beam housing. Just turn it (Counter-clockwise I think. It's one way or the other).

I did it at night and had another car next to mine both facing a garage door for comparison. Other about 5 full turns it's ALL GOOD.

You just have to adjust them once. I don't know why their set soo high up.

It's been 3 months now and I use my Lights everyday. No problems at all.

I have PIAA Super Plasma H3 Bulbs for the Low Beam and PIAA Super Plasma H1 Bulbs for the High Beam. Looks Awesome.

I had a pair of Hyper Plasma White 9006 on my stock lights and they melted the wire.
