Oops, didn't mean to imply that vertically adjusting the headlights was illegal - that's clearly not true. I meant to say that, in stock form, further upward adjustment of the HID projectors would violate (at least) US law.

I don't know what I was thinking re the manual adjusters haha. Of course you need those for initial adjustment post install.
