I have been looking for a diy on how to bent the squirrel finders on a 2010 xb, so the HIDs doesn't produce so much glare. I have read that you must disassemble almost your whole headlight.

Does anyone have pics of the squirrel finder in the xb projector? If it's in the front, I am thinking to stick a 90 degree pick in the headlight hole, and it can be bent that way. If it's in the rear (towards the engine) I would be able to bend it with a pocket screwdriver from the headlight hole. I tried to feel around with my finger but I guess it wasn't long enough. I didn't feel anything in there.

 

i think you first method is how it's done, just stick something in there, find the right spot and push it in.

lol

 

That's what she said!

 

 

Ok so this may be a stupid question, but what exactly is a "squirrel finder"?

 

It finds squirrels.

It's actually a part that's in the projector itself. The projector consists of the rear bowl, lens, lens holder, cut-off shield, and of course screws. The cut-off shield performs as the name implies, cuts off the light. The squirrel finder is a piece of metal that's rivetted, perpendicularly, to the cut-off shield. It acts to help reflect some light up past the cut-off point.

 

Hehehehehehehe......
