Projection Headlight Adjustments?

[italianguy63]

Does anyone have info on how to "aim" projection headlights. Mine are like the kind Stealth Auto sells. The low beam has 2 phillips screws at he bottom, and the high beam has 3 flat screws (2 on bottom and one on top). It seems my one headlight low beam is somewhat diffused. The "beam" is not clear like it is on the other headlight. If I reach back and man-handle the mounting portion of the bulb-- it sharpens right up. Also, adjusting the screws seems to have little or no effect... The lights were put in by a PO and I have no paperwork on them. If anybody has a .pdf instruction sheet, I would appreciate if you could e-mail it to me. Thanks!!

Hey Italianguy63. I have the exact pair of projector headlights as you do. I also have the same problem on the passenger side lense. I looked up a thread and found this(I don't know if it applies to our lights - I haven't checked yet:

Headlight aiming ???

..........thanks.......now I need to take the time to actually read all of that!!!

Nahh-- that is for stock lights. But the information might be helpful.

My thoughts are that the difused thing is a physics thing (I took physics in college unfortunately). I assume the focal length of the light at the back of the lens is too far away or too close... I am trying to avoid taking the light out and figuring out how it is assembled inside! You would think there would be an adjustment?!

Trying to find out what these screws do.....

Sorry man, I realize now that that thread was for stock lights. I checked my projectors today, without taking them out completely, and saw those screws you were talking about. I have HID coming in the mail, so I will probably take the headlights out completly to see what I'm looking at before I install them. Hopefully, I will figure out how to adjust these properly. I'll let you know if I find anything.
