Headlight Problems
Alright guys, last night I changed out my headlights for some Silverstar Ultras and had a slight problem...
When I turn on the High Beams, they aim downward :s??
Ideas?

I have, but when I turn on the high beams they still aim down instead of up... wrong bulbs maybe?

I'm not sure, I've been at school, work and sick, so I guess I need to change the bulbs back out, but I was just wondering if anyone had seen anything like that before

I have Silverstar Ultras and I never had this problem. Maybe try installing them upside down?

you can't install them upside down, they're round, they don't have a shield or anything.
