The housing will have an adjustment knob (looks more like a gear with a nut on it) that will adjust the angle of the low beam bulb and the way it sits. So lowering the angle won't necessarily decrease brightness, but it will lower the cutoff which can reduce glare. Keep in mind that lowering the angle will lower the distance the light shines on the ground. To be honest, most owners even at factory height don't lower the angle and still don't have any glare issues. I only mentioned that adjustment knob for certain owners that are meticulous about their light output.
