Default Raise headlights

Recently I bought a HID conversion kit and I lose use of my hi-beams and I was driving through the country roads and I basically could not see anything since I could only see a few feet ahead of me. I drive through a lot of backroads a lot, how do I raise my regular lights?

I have a 01 mustang

Which HID kit did you get? How were you planning to lower the lights once you get back to the city?

hence why you get the high/low beam HID kit. It basically angles the bulb up or down.

i bought the kit off ebay, it was cheap and i thought i was buying the true dual where it has a retracting bulb for the hi and low beam but in different color print that was hard to see, it said something like, "not for this auction".

just throwing up random numbers, let's say hi beams let you see 50 feet ahead of you and low beams were 25, i just want to raise the low beams a tiny bit to see like 35 ft ahead of me for a better cushion because i feel like my lights are staring at the ground a lot lower than my other cars.
