I've searched, but I haven't come across anyone talking about this. Is there a way to adjust the DRL bulb height/level? My driver side DRL is much higher than the passenger side. Only DRL, as the low beams are leveled. Surprisingly, for the past week that I've had the car, no one has flashed their brights at me. They appear to be LED because they're extremely bright. Also, the high beams at night, ARE INSANE!!! It's a fucking spotlight.
I purchased the car exactly as it is, and haven't altered anything just yet. The DRL and reverse bulbs appear to be LED.
There is only one adjustment for low and high beam
Thank you for the response. My driver's side bulb randomly turned pink today. I should have spare D2S bulbs in the garage from my previous cars. I'll update once I have some results.

Alright, so I tried adjusting the headlight with the knob/leveler, and... nothing happened... Clockwise, and counterclockwise, absolutely no change in level. Not sure what to make of that yet, @altair47 . I visually inspected both DRL bulbs, and the driver's side appears to be angled differently. Perhaps @WDPanda might be correct. The driver's side xenon burnt out completely today. I did find an old set of D2S bulbs from a previous car I had. I'll get up in about 4-5 hours and swap out the bulb, alongside my new, yellow fog light bulbs. I'll report back after the swap is complete.
How many turns did you make? You need to rotate it quite a lot to see any changes.
I turned at east 15-20 times in both directions, with no visible differentiation. When you say "quite a lot," how many turns are you alluding to? I'm going now to change the bulbs.
1) I replaced the driver's side xenon bulb. What a pain in the ass, with the little clearance.
2) I replaced the passenger side fog light housing, and swapped in yellow bulbs on both sides. Again, a pain in the ass, especially the passenger side having the windshield wiper fluid reservoir about a couple of inches behind the housing.
3) I wiggled the DRL bulb around, and it didn't seem to be secure in place. It's too bright to determine the level right now, so I'll check tonight when I go for a cruise. The xenons appeared to be perfectly normal after the swap, so hopefully they'll last.
I have a picture from the other night when the driver's side turned pink. I'll post that now, and tonight I'll post the look with the new bulbs.
