depo projector headlight question
I just installed a set of Depo projector headlights in my '98 coupe. I went for a drive on a dark country road. The low beams are great. The high beams are aimed at the tree tops and sky. Clearly way too high! Can you aim these things?

There are threads about this. I believe there is a design flaw that prevents you from aiming the high beams properly. there is a thread by Radioflyer about his improved projectors without this problem.

Nope... no separate adjustment for the high beams. You really shouldn't need them much with low beam projectors though...

I believe the screw on the bottom of the housing adjust both at the same time. I have mine adjusted to where they are at the lowest setting. Out of the box my low beams were hitting the top of the trees....

Don't do it Vetteman!! I have these lights(Depo) and they are terrible. They arent that bright and out of focus. The glue around the edges is cheap and non consisent. Scratches easily and condensation is very possible. Also you get the frog eye bump. I love the clear projector look but this is Poor quality. I just ordered Radioflyers Stealth Cannons. Pricey but look great and they are zenon. Good luck!

Now thats funny 
BTW, for those considering ACA's (or any of the knock off ACA clones), Ive read that you cant adjust the highs on them either. Most reports also say that they are so satisfied with the low's that the problem with the highs doesn't matter.
