Suggestion: Keep your "projector" lights why you send you OE headlights to http://www.customlightz.com/ and get them retrofitted

Or next time buy better projectors. I have had HID's in my TYC projectors for years and they were easy to adjust and the cutoff is great.

But other than that you need to make sure you are using the right screws to adjust the projector. On mine the screws for the projector are underneath the dust cap that the wires go into. You may be adjusting the high beam one on that does have the hid bulb in it.
