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?

So its not the headlight housing itself? Its just the bulb?

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.
