You will have to adjust your headlights down as they will be pointed up. I did not have problems with AFS light coming on, but some people have reported AFS light issues.

If the problem is caused by aftermarket parts the dealer is under no obligation to fix the problem.

(they still might, but they're free to charge you for doing so)
