There is. I believe its the screw thats practically crammed up in the fender area. Either use a small 8mm rachet or usea flat head through an opening on top of headlight. Either way, its irritating.

I mean theres literally 2 bolts that u use to align them...one moves left and right one moves up and down...
Sorry, I didn't make myself clear enough. I had them installed by a shop.

If I had known there were 2 bolts, I would've done it myself, but I'm the furthest thing from a mechanic so I have a shop to do it for me. Thanks.

Did anyone have a problem with their Winjets having a gap? Pics will show what I'm talking about.. This is my left headlight. You can see the wiring in pic 2. Right side is fine though.. I'm not sure what to do so if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix it, it'd be great!




Or is that how it's supposed to be?

The gap is normal that red and black wire has a bit of slack - it can be fixed by opening up the back and pulling the slack towards the back cover

Question: Does anyone have issues with reflection of the silver trim around the projector? I have the annoying light reflection outside of the normal output on both far sides of the car. It seems to be coming from the silver trim around the projector.

The problem is worst since installing my Diode Dynamics HID kit.

Edit: To make matters worse, I realised why my kit had a shitty output.. The Diode Dynamics kit comes with H11 bulbs, Winjets use H7 bulbs. Welp, new HID kit will be required.

Yeaaaaaah, not yet. Don't want to remove the whole headlights to do a retrofit. Not yet anyway. I'll just switch my H11 HID to my fog lights and buy an H7 kit.

I'll see if the H7 bulb fixes the Halo problem, I'm suspecting it's due to the wrong bulb being installed now.

Has anyone taken apart the black winjet headlights to paint the little bit of chrome around the projector black? Haven't seen it anywhere yet and considering a pair.

That's exactly what this person did and he did it quite well I might add, while you're in there it would be awesome to do a full retrofit, and drl mod as well
