headlights.....

Hey guys, when you lowered your CLs, did you notice a smaller headlight range at night? I slammed mine all the way down and at night I cant see as good as I used to... is there a way to angle the headlights? havent tinkered around in there yet, just thought i'd ask before i remove the bumper and stuff..

All you need is to adjust the height. I adjusted mine up some after lowering. There's an adjusting screw on the side of the headlight in the engine bay.

11k bright...? I don't think so. Colorful maybe, but not as bright as you think. Eyes ever get tired driving at night? It's because of eye fatigue from your NOT so bright lights. Bet it's harder to see in the rain too. More intense color does not mean brighter light.

but thats just to make them level, doesnt say how high to go.
and those bulbs must be blue as heck, def not legal. and not bright either, maybe thats why your having trouble seeing.
