Default Re: LED Headlights

I think a lot of people get hung up on the fact you can't focus.You do NOT focus forward firing LED's.The same idea as not trying to focus a sealed beam headlight bulb.They are focused,you just aim them.With bulbs and reflectors the light bounces off the reflectors,and you adjust the bulb in and out to toss that light out into a point.With the forward firing LED's the only thing you do is to adjust the levelness of the beams.That is done by loosening two little allen screws and twisting the bulb until the stripe is on the top.That will make your beams levelIf your sockets are twisted,or your headlights are canted,if you set that stripe on the top your beams will be dead level.Your reflectors do not come into play at all,except,as a thing to hold the sockets.
