240sx Headlight Woes

[masticatingcow]

Hey everyone--

The headlights on my S13 seem to project a bit too high. It's enough that when I'm driving behind just about any car at night, the driver behaves like I'm running my brights. You know the drill, quick braking, dome light on and off, hazards, etc.

Usually, it's not a problem, but tonight I had a guy in some SUV almost run me off the road because it pissed him off. (Don't worry, I got his LP number. Cops called.)

So basically I need some way to keep this from happening. What is the feasibility of angling the lights down so they project DOWN? Or are some light lenses directional, so that even when installed correctly, they have a vertical bias? HELP! I don't want someone to hurt me or my car over this! LOL

Thanks for any suggestions.

um...adjust the headlights by turning the adjustment screw? It's under the headlight when it's in the up position on the s13 iirc

Thanks for the quick reply S14SRpilot. I know it's a noobish question, but I haven't spent any time with the lights before this last incident. I'll check it out. Thanks again.
