nup not lowered it, i think if i did id be better off holding a f**king torch out the window in the night lol. The only adjustment i can see on the actual light unit itself adjust how wide the beam is by the looks of it. The little white adjuster a tthe back of it that is

yeah ive done that. theyre all the way up. at the moment i can almost get away with full beam all the time and hardly anyone notices lol. probs cos its not as bad as all these bloody audi drivers with their fog lamps lol. i wasnt sure if this was how they were or if its a fault with my particular ones so just need some feedback from other vtr owners i guess!

I have an 02 MK2 VTR with standard lights and mines are actually quite good.
I can adjust them with the bit below the steering wheel to shine roughly between 10-30 yards!
