Ok, why would you want to do this??? What do you think the high beams are for?

Thank GOD ACURA designed the headlamp adjustments a tad bit more complicated...

because high beams flood the whole area in front of me. i only want to blind the person right in front of me. so if he were to cut me off, i wouldn't have to high beam him. my lights would already high and he would want to move out of my way. i'm also looking into the 6000k bulbs. yeah! so are they up yet??? time to check.

man, i'm getting no love. well just called acura and they said they can only level it...for $45. it takes a couple of hours to fix it and no loaner. wtf. i hear other dealerships giving loaners for oil changes. and then he says if i would to adjust it on my own it'd void the warranty. i wonder if i drive my car will it void the warranty? sometimes i wish i got a "real" luxury car.

WTF???? adjusting the headlights and the warranty is voided? This is the most stupid BS I have ever heard . If this is the case, my warranty have been voided 20 times

Dude, don't you see the arrows on the plastic piece right above your headlights. Stick a philips crew driver in there and turn as directed.

Gabe...

1, u should REALLY come up with a new custom status instead of jocking mine

2, I did that too and it's a rather dumb idea. Our headlights even when lowered, work the best where they are set. To my expereience, this is still true when u lower your car. Why? Well, when u aim them up, u accomplish "Pissing the crap outta the person in front of you" but because our roadlamps are so shitty, your headlights are going to miss the area of raod now that you have aimed them up. I realized this when I was coming off the bay bridge and I was lighitng up the signs from 200 feet, but could BARELY see what was in front of me. Come to the meet this weekend and I'll bring the helms for you to look at and I'll show u where u make the adjustments.
