So no one knowsw how to adjust the lights on a laser??? I've tried turning the 2 knobs on the back of the headlight unit but it doesn't seemto do anything. As I said before any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm worried about my gf driving at night with such poor low beams.

You could change the globes to the 'ultra white' or similar.
They apparently light up more.

Do not go higher wattage, you will melt the lights.

There is an 11mm knob on the back of each, that should adjust them. It takes a while for them to move. Are you shining the lights against a steady wall when adjusting?

Hey tried turning those... must have been impatient as I couldn't notice any change... I was shining them against the roller door.

Cheers, for the help!
