Default HID Alignment?

Hey Guys,

This might be a stupid question, but it has come to my attention that my lights are a bit off. My left hid lense seems to be a bit lower than my right when the lights are on. Is there a way to straighten this? It's sooo annoying when I have my lights on.

By design, each headlight contains a metal baffle that shapes the beam so that the left side shines lower than the right. It is possible to adjust each light so the entire pattern goes up or down but the left side will still be lower. Instructions are here.

Thanks guys. I didn't know it was meant to be lower. I thought it was supposed to be even. Now that I got that out of the way, on the bigger and better things
