Thanks, actually the headlight aim is exactly where I want it to be right now. It's the fog lights that I need to adjust. Any clue on how to do that?

Bah, looks like one of my LED parking lights is dying already. Saw it flickering after I got out of my car tonight.

Turns out it was loose. I ended up swapping the 12-LED bulbs to 5-LED bulbs since they fit better and I don't have to use electrical tape to hold them in.

Here's a few wall shots of my HIDs:

PLEASE HELP!!!!, Both SGT and I would greatly appreciate any recomendations as to how to re-aim our fogs... one is kicking up more than the other... hence, we get the "semi-winking" effect....
eternity, in that pic you posted on page 1, what low beam K are you running? thanks.

hey steve. what degree (angle) do you have your lows to? then your fogs I can guess after that, due to spacement between in picture.

My lows are perfect, but my lows are a tad low I'm thinking. I'd change but they aren't exactly easy. I might do it later......

Jace

can you do me a favor and put a black towel over both your lows and take a picture of your spread of your fogs in front of your car at night. I'll do same.

If you look at the bubble gauge, I have my bubbles positioned towards the high end of the gauge.

I initially had 12-LED bulbs but in order to get them to stay in the socket, I needed to use electrical tape. I didn't want to do that so I just got the 5-LED bulbs instead, which fit perfectly. Both sets of bulbs were purchased at Super Bright LEDs.
