Default 08 oem projector question/help

Well my problem atm is i have some 08 projectors in my 07 tc, and i also have some hid's in them. Right now the cut off is not really that great, and was wondering if i can see some pictures of other members with their 08 headlights and hids on a flat wall.

mine currently has about 3 point were they right higher, from left to right.
(ignore the stars on the top line)

your driver side is slightly lower than your passenger side to avoid shinning you're HID's from incoming traffic. that way you don't blind driver's, and you're passenger side helps you see better.

or you can adjust them yourself, which was what i did.

there are ***** so that you can adjust the beam vertically. so no need to force the housing in any direction. the headlights are not perfect. also having a perfect cut off is not the most important thing. when i put on my s.tech they were pointed too down so what i did was raise them up and then adjusted until everyone stopped flashing their brights at me.
