just put new headlights in my 2000 Mustang. ( It was easy to do). I have 8000K halogen bulbs in them for super bright white light.

The trouble is, when I took a test drive last night I was scared because I could not really see. I think they point too much to the ground or something. Even when on hi-beam, I still could not see as good as with the stock headlights that were a bit clouded.

Anyone have any thoughts? Is there a way to adjust the direction of the bulb? I don;t see how, though, as I replaced the bulbs and there seems to be only one way they sit.

Help. I may need to put my stocks back in .
Here are the lights I have:

I just read that the blue halogens cut your vision by 20%? I got a pair included with the lights I bought and put them in. Maybe that is why I cannot see? Should I put the regular bulbs back in? Plus I do not want to burn up my car...please advise.

My headlights are BRAND NEW.... don't need polish.
I will be taking out the "upgrade" lightbulbs that came with them and putting in the original plain lights. Hopefully I will be able to see better.

Park the car facing your garage door. Click on the lights. There should be a 1/8" rod, with a hex end, above the headlight. Turn to adjust to the same height.

Without an upgrade to your wiring harness those bulb s could melt your wiring where you put them in the bulb. I like the sylvania silverstar bulbs, they are bright and do not heat up like the ones you got. another thing you may need to do is polish your headlight lens with a good headlight lens cleaning kit. Most parts stores have both.
