I second that. No-one has really said yet how they actually adjusted them, other than just the magical "I adjusted them".

Oh! You adjusted them! How nice for you! Here, I'm sitting inside adjusting mine now, with the power of my mind!

Hehe. Sorry. I'm just playing.

Well, it was pretty easy on mine... the little screw cap thing can be screwed on in a few ways, and that generally dictates where the beam ends up. I had my driverside pointed a bit low, and then basically went to a wall, and moved the bulb around, and then found the "right" place for the screw cap to be in place. Now they're perfectly even, and bright as hell. I got the Eurolite Ultra Plasma Xenons with the stock 65/55 wattage from PlanetPerformance.com for 25.52. Good deal, and I'd highly recommend them to anyone who gets annoyed by yellowish lights.

Yeah, it may not be 100% accurate, but, by all appearances, it's just a matter of messing with it until it's right.

You can align the headlight. If u look close enough at your headlight, the lens is in its own plastic and not connected to the rest of the chrome colored assembly. In back of the headlight assembly you will see a Milky white knob about a quarter size in diameter tucked in the fender area. Under that is a screw that will adjust the pitch of your beam. I haven't figured out how to take it off yet but I know its there. I have and extra headlight due to an accident I got in. I was tinkering around with the old damaged headlight to find and adjustment for the beam since my new headlight points low to the ground, but it looks like Mitsubishi has rigged it so that you must go to the dealer to have it adjusted. I’m still trying to figure out a way to get the milky white cap off. It’s on there pretty good so I would go tearing right into, it may be a challenge for some inpatient people. If anyone finds out and easy way to get the cap off let me know!
