I don't think changing the rails will do anything. I think the general design of the OEM seat is what's creating the higher seating position vs bride low max seats.

Do you have any examples of your work? And how much would it be to wrap the dash pieces (wrap and labour)?

I know it adjusts the aim and not the brightness; I was simply asking if anyone else had experienced the same volume of other cars flashing them as I had been.
None taken, I was just basing it on this:

More on topic, I have HID's in my stock FRS housings and have only been flashed once or twice in ~2 years. Are you lowered at all? If so, is the rear lower than the front compared to stock (ie some of the stock rake gone)? That would result in them being aimed higher than stock at 0.

It's the height adjusting mechanism that raises the seat up a bit higher. If you can find someone in a RHD country selling a passenger seat it would accomplish what you want. The passenger seat is noticeably lower than the drivers seat since it isn't height adjustable.

Suspension is stock. I have 2 of my OEM rims/tires in the back for added weight but that's it.

I was getting flashed in the summer too. Just seemed to be happening more often lately.

I've been at 1 for two days now and no flashes.

I'm on 2 now and nothing at the back yet...
So, let's see how it goes.

Are you guys getting flashed while on high beams? I've always run the 0 setting on low beams and have never been flashed.
