Default need help with my headlights

so i bought these http://www.americanmuscle.com/94-04-...ctors-dot.html and the low beams are really pretty poor.. they only shine a little in front of the car and the one on the right actually shines onto the bumper... i was wondering if it would be possible to tip the low beams up to shine on more of the road?? thanks

There should be something at the top that you can twist which will adjust the light up and down. On the stock headlights its a hex screw.

There's a flat metal part on the back of the light that lines up with the stock adjuster. That should allow you to adjust them.

Hey I had a set just like that. You have to adjust it by turning the screw that located at the top you should see it just you use a screw driver. The owners manual will tell you how to adjust the lights far as height wise.
