The screws are same on both headlamps so recheck your headlamp as I feel the one you have marked isn't the screw. Also in your picture, look at the top right corner, "Screw 1" is seen, so look again beside the leveller motor to find a similar screw a.k.a Screw 2. | |

I would suggest you to not simply raise the headlight beam randomly. Park your car such that there is a wall at least 15-20ft away. Place the leveller in 0 position and in low beam, make a small mark where the cutoff falls on the wall. Now move the leveller to position 2 and now adjust the beam such that the cutoff is raised to the previous 0 marking. Continue using the car in position 2 and only when you need more throw, change to position 1 or 2. This will prevent excessive glare to oncoming users and you can make better use of the leveller whenever you need better throw. Last edited by audioholic : 2nd November 2015 at 10:19. | |

Yes, my plan is to adjust a beams in such a way that the current 0 position moves to 2 so that I have the ability to adjust the throw on the fly in both directions. That is how my brother has adjusted the headlights in his Beat. | |

| ![]() Guys, I tried searching for the thread but couldn't find it, has anyone here heard from or done business with Lumen Systems based in Banglore? They retrofit & also sell aftermarket lights from Eagle Eyes (based in Taiwan). Their FB page seems good. Any help would be highly appreciated! Thanks. |

| ![]() Guys, my car's left high beam is not working. I connected the entire setup on the other side and it worked fine. Then I checked the Voltage using multimeter and found that the left side isn't getting any supply from the plug. What could be the issue? |

| ![]() Folks, I'm getting a new car for my elderly dad. He is 78 years young and still enjoys driving. I decided to get him an automatic to help him extend his driving years by as much as possible ![]() Not surprisingly, my dad has some issues with driving at night. So I think it would help to upgrade the stock halogens with HIDs. I did it on my VW here in the US and the improvement in the lighting was dramatic. First of all, would such a mod affect warranty? Is this a function of the local dealership or Ford India? I say that because he does have a good relationship with the local dealer. Secondly, are there good places to order such parts in India, or should I bring the projectors, HIDs, ballasts etc from the US? I've never worked on Fords before, but when I added HIDs to my VW, I had to use the VAG computer to change some settings on the car computer. What about Fords, and in particular the new Figo? Thanks in advance for your advice. |

| ![]() What could be the worthy upgrade for headlights on Maruti Ritz? The current OEM set-up is not good at all? There are offers on PayTM, anything that I should pick up? Just need 20% more brightness. TIA. Last edited by creative420 : 4th November 2015 at 12:32. |

Remember to get the Focusing done right so that the lighting doesnt spread. Unless correctly focussed, the effort of putting in the HID will go awaste. I think many auto accessories shops do the installations. Like was asked on teh prev page here, Lumen Systems is one .. | |

| ![]() Most kits come with jumper clips which the accessory shops chuck away preferring to cut and tape the wires. So watch out on this. |

Request you don't just go by the price. Look for reviews and rating of seller before you finalise. | |
