I have found, like many others, that the HID low beam headlights on my EVO are quite low even on the highest setting; they are so easy to overrun on a dark road. Just curious, has anyone had the dealer adjust the HID headlights higher? If so, are you now satisfied with the projection of the low beams?

 

i would like to know that also

 

someone has to know how to do this.
someone post instructions with pics please.

 

Hi,

This has been discussed and a search will bring up numerous threads. I do not believe anyone was able to raise the position of the lights. And if you did, you need to be prepared for on-coming cars flashing their brights at you. The HIDs have a very narrow field and if you adjust them higher, every little hill on road will blind on coming cars as your front end rises and the HIDs shine brightly!

i went to my local dealership to do it for me!

 

Ok maybe this is a dumb question for you jigglyp83, but did the dealership adjust them higher or not ? You didn't really answer that

 

Oh yeah, by the way we are talking about the HID low beams, not the high beams that you can adjust with a torx driver.

From Service Manual:

 

do you have to unscrew the 10mm bolt out to adjust it?
also which way do i turn, right or left?
thanx.

 

Moving to Troubleshooting.

 

Do I remove the motor driven gear and then twist the headlight mounted gear, then reattach?

 

None of these post regarding adjustment of the low beam helps! Some say adjust with a torx driver, some 10mm hex bolt.......what is what?? Would someone who has done it successfully please help! mucho gracias!

 

If you look at the gear on the car (shown in the picture above) you will see that it is 2 sided. On the inside there is a hole in which you can stick a screw driver or maybe a T25 torx and turn the gear to adjust.

 

I have just put some images here:
