yep those two, im up **** creek as one's no longer gripping the 10mm ratchet

im thinking of getting a 9mm and trying?

[mui_michael]

Try a pair of pliers?

If worst comes to worst, just use a Stanley knife to cut it as the two bolts are just plastic.

okay ive got the left hand side light it, i tried it out but the bean is insanely low - it reaches at max 1 metre away from the car and it's not above the bonnet line when stationary - the stock halogen on the right is a lot brighter - anyone know what could be up?

Use this for height adjustment:


And for brightness, mine is perfect but I've noticed that the plug needs to be push in very hard. The first time I pushed in, it didn't work...

I've adjusted it as high as possible - even still it's extremely low - pointing down a street I get basically no light :/

Have you tried the dials at the back of the headlight to adjust the beam?

[mui_michael]

Try these?

One of the Brazilian guys just posted this:



It seems like he has a similar issue but pointing too high up.

I've picked up my headlights from DHL today, opened up the box to have a very quick look but will have a much closer look over the next few days. Hoping to install the headlights this weekend!

I found 2 parts at the bottom of the box on one of the headlights but they were easily re-attached. Nothing seems to be broken.
Closer inspection of the inside of the headlights shows a bit of dust and light marks.
In front of the one of the lights, the honeycomb pattern is broken from what appears to be impact damage. Very minute but I did notice it.

Hoping to install it this weekend. Anyone want to help and has a cable?

um...,the condensation on my lamps going worse. i can see the clear lamps in the morning, but after I hanging around in rain condensation that covers half of eyes... i will update with photos soon

Mark stated there was heavy rain/higher humidity levels at the time of production which may explain why there is that much condensation, he suggested putting desiccant in the headlights to help absorb the moisture. See how you go and let us know if it improves the condensation.

I've adjusted it as high as possible - even still it's extremely low - pointing down a street I get basically no light :/

The photos I quickly took of my headlights last night show the rear adjusters circled.



They move the corresponding adjustors:

Tomatoes - Have you coded your headlights yet? How does it look? I wanna do mine too anyone able to help me out on this?

[point]

Mine are currently installed, the projectors aimed and the DRLS coded and damn they look good! Having the LEDs on with the main beam looks great!
