Adjusting H.I.D's. Sharpness
Ok my hid's have the casper shield. I'm not really sure what direction it should be in. Right now its at the bottom end. I was told my lights arent correct as far as glare.... What should i do to adjust.

Proper look




Mines improper

The casper shields should cover the bottom of the bulb to prevent it from reflecting off the lower half of the headlight housing.

2 ways.... projector retrofit or reflector swap. All other solutions won't work so well.
