[QUOTE="bmw7833, post: 401654, member: 4089"] I think both my headlight adjusters still ok as i can adjust up and down the light yesterday night! So now the light downward problem is focus to the bulb position. I opened up the bulb holder today morning and found what.. How the holder sit on the place. [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/12022010.jpg[/IMG] Open it and SHIT! The ceramic rod is facing up! [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/12022010001.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/P2120420.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/P2120418.jpg[/IMG] The bulb holder was cut so that the wire can connect to ballast. [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/P2120422.jpg[/IMG] Since the socket is fit only facing upward, so to make the ceramic rod facing down, i have to cut either the yellow line or the red circle mark. [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/P2120424.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/evicevenevo/BMW/P21204201.jpg[/IMG] I will try to DIY to fix the problem. Worst to worst i scarify the holder and buy a new one set after CNY! [/QUOTE]
