Default Just installed IPF headlight swap but....

everything installed fine no problems, when I went to look at them at night up close they are fine, but from a distance the passenger side seems brighter then the drivers side. I measured from 25ft against a white fence and measure 3ft up and the aiming is pretty on.....any thoughts? thanks..

You may just need to adjust them as they can appear brighter or dimmer depending on how you are looking at them. I have these lights and they are identical in output

when you say adjust, do you mean use the torx 15 and play with the aiming?

Yeah just look in the owners manual. Its very easy. One way to do it is to get close to a wall or garage door at night. You can get pretty close just eyeballing it
