Aiming JDM Headlights
I should have read up on this before I installed it
. I forgot that the JDM version was made for RHD so the beams go towards the left (so the beam pattern looks like this \___ ). The beams for the USDM version (LHD) go toward the right (so the beam pattern looks like this ___/ ). So now that I have the JDM version on, I blind oncoming traffic.
Anyway, for those who have it installed (and/or for those who have knowledge about this), did you just lower the beam on the driver side? Or both sides? And I'm guessing I can leave the high beams alone?
Also, do I have to remove the bumper to make these adjustments?

Hmm. . . well, I adjusted them anyway. They were aimed REALLY high compared to my stock ones.
Was there anything I needed to do with the bulbs? I mean, I just needed to install them the same exact way it was in the stock ones right?
