so the ‘actual aimers’ are the adjusters on the back you refered to in the first line?

and what you’re saying is the whole headlight assembly has to be tilted up in the front (down in the back) so that the adjusters have any real effect?

I run these exact projectors and absolutely love them as far as the light cutoff goes and the colour of the cutoff. As far as mounting them in the silvia housings looks like a breeze if you have a small amount of custom fabrication skills. They appear to be an almost exact fit! and you’ll have a real retro fit headlight!

If you go this route heres a good site another member showed me. These HID setups get stupid sophisticated that i dont have the patience to learn about colour changing/shifting the HID projector and such…
