Default Hid prob:Headlight leveler??

Well i recently installed blue/white Hid lights on my IS 300 but the problem is that they arent lighting up the road as well as they should i mean the lights either seem to be pointing way up or they are pointing way down...my friend got the same exact Hid as i did (on an altima) and his lights have no prob they light up the road completely and mine dont seem to do the same....some people told me that is because of the auto leveler but i cant seem to adjust it right =\
has anyone that upgraded their HID on their IS had this problem or your lights up the whole road perfectly?

Park your car on a level surface with the front facing toward a wall or garage door. Find the adjustment screws. The screws are located on different places on different models, but they are frequently on the side and on the bottom of the headlamps. On many models, there will be smaller screws that hold the headlight into the assembly, and 2 larger screws for horizontal and vertical adjustments. Some cars may only have one screw for both the vertical and horizontal adjustment. Turn the headlights on. Make note of the light they cast on the wall or garage door. They should be facing evenly straight ahead. Loosen or tighten the adjustment screws slightly with a screwdriver to lower or raise the beam. Repeat with the other headlight. Turn the high beams on and repeat if your car has a 4-headlight system (2 high beams and 2 low beams).

Hope this helps. Goodluck!
