Fail, you should have stick with your OEM projector headlights with some HID and it looks X9999 better than aftermarket.

But anyways they should be adjustable, they got some screws on the back. Twist those and you can move the beam up and down. GL.

well i got the audi lookin lights wit the L.E.D. along the topm and also have angel eyes. i looked on the back of them when i put my HID lights on and the only screms i could find were on back of the reflectors but on the inside of the housing. do i really have to go thru the trouble of takin the housing apart just to adjust them??

The leds on the top will go out soon enough, there really cheap. No the screws should be on the back of the headlight it should be close to where the low beam bulb goes in. You dont need to take the housing apart to adjust them.

On factory, its either an 8 or 10 mm bolt to adjust up/down. There's probably something like that on these too
