  • just installed HIDs, how do you tilt them up?

    I just installed the McCullough HIDs from the group buy and i noticed some people said they needed to tilt them up a little bit, i think i need to do that also, how do you do it? I couldnt see how to adjust just the bulb, im guessing you tilt the casing. Thanks for the help!

    yea right above the headlight there are adjusters. You need an allen key to turn them. The chrome flat piece at the bottom of the headlight is what tilts up and down.

        i just tried it today, i turned the thing all the way to one side and couldnt tell a difference, is it really noticable? or am i doing something wrong, i also couldnt tell a difference when doing the foglights.

          You need to make a reference point as to where the lights are first, against your house/wall or whatever. Then adjust the lights-believe me they'll move. There were two of us who originally did the HID's and we both had to adjust the hell outta them-up that is. They are so high that the HIGH's shoot into the sky.

              I just stand about 20 feet in front of the car and adjust them until they start to glare at the same height.
