I'm getting flashed pretty regularly myself. After installing the 3" lift and now the 3/4" spacers I'll definitely be clearing my calendar sometime soon to adjust the lights.

I wasnt specific because I cant remember for sure! I was adjusting while the lights were on against the garage door. I think it was "counter clock wise" to lower the beam. The nite coming back from our JK run the other day- I didnt get flashed once. Before I adjusted I probably would have been flashed 10 times. Also- the adj screw is a torx-- I couldnt find the right size- so I actually used an hex wrench that fit it enough to turn it. The other adj screws at 4 and 8 o clock are for left/rt adjustment- I did not adj those at all.

I couldnt resist going out for a few minutes last night after bringing my Rubi home just to test the lights. I wanted to see if its as bad as it has been reported - and I must say I agree, the brights aren't that good. The lows are ok, lows+fogs are EXCELLENT. Highs work, but they seemed aimed too far away..I'll put it to the highway test soon.

i've got up/down and left/right adj. on mine. i got flashed a couple times, once on a highway, where i pulled up behind some dude, he got behind me and turned his on. after about 4 miles, i grew weary of this, slowed to about 25 until he was good and pissed, then pulled over. when he came up to ***** at me, i showed him what my high-beams were, politely requested he go **** himself for not giving another human the benefit of the doubt, and merrily went on my way.
