Anyone got a picture of exactly where this headlight adjustment is? Or perhaps someone would care to post a DIY to help keep the roads a little safer. :)

FYI, on the sedan it's an 8mm nut you have to tighter/loosen in order to adjust the headlights vertically.

After trying just to change blubs, I be afraid to install HID's, it's so tight for space. Are the instructions that come with most kits easy to follow? IS it a big job?

Still kickin around the idea of hid's. Who all has the bi beam kit and what is the brand and do they fit ok without any modding of the assembly?

I have the hi beam kit and it fits perfectly. You just have to turn the rubber piece behind the bulb inside out to fit the larger bulb casing.

As far as installation goes... It's just as easy as changing the light bulbs only you have the added step of mounting the ballasts.

I know low price soooo........Has anyone had problems with the Bi beam fitting. I Imagine they would all be of correct size and not oversized.

Hey, see my post at http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8922.

I tested a bi-xenon kit from Xenonlink.com and it did not fit in my LB's headlight setup. The springs that hold the bulb in would not work with the HID bulb. I'm sending the kit back for a refund.

I have ordered another kit from xenithxenons.com, who have tested their bi-xenon kit on Scion xBs, which also use H4 and have a similar spring retaining system so hopefully this kit should be compatible with our cars.

I'll let you guys know what the results are.

Pop your hood.. look for a black round barrel on the inside (engine side) of the light housings, with a white + in the center.. thats your adjuster.

Right on. I posted the comment when i was at work and in a hurry. I just checked the manual online and seen it, but for some reason I couldnt find it before. I guess I will try to lower the headlights before I give up on the HID's until someone starts selling retrofitted headlight assemblys so I dont have to mess with it. Also Chris I was curious how you have the stock assemblys and no one has flashed you. Is it in the bulb for some people like with the glare shields or de people re aim??? I just have no idea how people have HID's without retrofitting or lowering the assemblys.

Sedan is different. Just went outside andfound it. It looks like a light grey wheel with a 8mm nut in the middle. I just turned it clockwise and lowered my lights. Looks a 100 times better.

I am now returning the 8000K hid lights back to the store. After installing the lights I found out that I cannot have these lights working on my car with the DRL module. In Canada its the law to have DRL ( Daytime running lights). It would be a $360 ticket without it. So I contacted the supplier and he told me to return it. Thats $300 bucks back in my wallet!

When you unplugged your halogen bulb, the connector should have 3 wires in it.. is this what you are talking about?
