[QUOTE="Mun, post: 461377, member: 17916"] Just discovered that we can adjust the angle of the headlights. The initial (factory) angle is on the low side and didn't get wide distribution. ( My wife's Jazz seems to give wider and longer distribution!) This is a problem when going fast on roads where we don't really know the surface. and recently the left side seemed to spot lower where I can see a long diagonal band close to the front panning to the right. So browsed E90post forum and discovered the unit can be adjusted. The tip was about 2 turns CCW for passenger side and 1 turn CCW on driver side so as not to blind the incoming traffic. So much brighter now, and in fact you can adjust left and right angle too. tip - if you are lighting road signs brightly, then it is too high. Also can test by sitting in an opposite car. Btw, I don't switch on DRL but turn the switch to the left (A). make more sense to lit automatically as going into penchala link tunnel, covered carparks, heavy rain and approaching dark. [/QUOTE]
