Hello,

I have recently installed 6000k HID bulbs in my 2012 Hyundai Accent Active (Base Model) And after installing them I went for a drive and saw that they were point down at the road more then directly infront of me. I have been looking for a couple of hours and I cant see how I adjust the bulbs to go up a little bit.
