Default after market Projector halo problem

i just got new projector/halo headlights on my 2003 accord. i need some help and info on how the projector's project the light beam or what ever its called.

The Problem: when i have the low beams centered or lined up evenly and turn on the high beams, one of the high beams tend to shoot up. i have tried to fix the problem by mounting the bracketing differently but found no help. i also tried adjusting the lights from the back, but it is still off. i want to get this fixed or maybe send it back to the seller. don't know what to do!!! current projector users would be helpfull by posting some pix's up or something. i don't want to blind the opposing traffic or a cop and get a ticket. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks

i also need some info on how to put pixs up. tried copy and paste but doesn't work.

With those projectors ou are SOL. Only way to make those useful is to retro them.

To post pics use this [img][/img] code. Insert pic addy inbetween img and /img.

Just stay on the site for a month I think and you will become a member.

Have fun!

the only way to fix your problem is send your stock headlights off to get a retro in them, and burn those Halos

they seem a little whitter and clearer but kind of spotty than the originals. certain spots get more light than other spots or something like that. i also read somewhere that the projector or lens might be upsidedown or something like that. as of now i am having a friend thats going to look at the lights for me compared to the OEM lights and see if he can modify them so they are clearer and brighter and maybe make room to fit HID in them. can some one who has these aftermarket Projector/halo take a pix of theirs shinning, both of the car and where the light projecting the light on to. that would be very greatful. thanks

also can some one go into a little more depth on how to post pix.

"To post pics use this [img][/img] code. Insert pic addy inbetween img and /img."

this isn't working too well. either that or i missed something.

To post pictures using the [IMG] code you have to have your pictures hosted somewhere first. Then simply copy think link and paste it so it looks like this:

[IMG]link[IMG].

On another note, you have to have the pics hosted by a site. You can't link them directly off your hard drive, I was having trouble with that when I started out too. The place I use for pic hosting is http://www.we-todd-did-racing.com Free and easy to use.
