Default Can't aim ebay headlights vertically, only horizontally?!

Hey guys!

So I had these installed before having the car stored for winter, and the HID's are pointed crazy high. I get flashed all the time and I don't want to blind people!

I had the car taken to a very good mechanic and he tells me that there is NO up-down adjustment, only left-right.... fu*k me

I'm sure others who have purchased these have had the same issue... how do i fix this issue?!?!

ps. flamers dont bother

If there is no vertical adjustment then you answered your own question. You can't do anything. There ebay headlights what do you expect there not going to be OEM.

The verticle adjust should be in the same place as the oem now as for the horizint that one should be hidden

Ezmotoring a vendor here sells those headlights easier to get from

There are a lot of people on here doing other mods like placing the OEM projector in an aftermarket light assembly.

I'm curious if anyone else has this issue, and if so, how did you fix it...?
