    The Headlights I just bought they look like a half V shape, and i went to adjust them and they look the same either way i move them, they are projector lights im looking for an answer but all i can find is that they are not fitted in right but no solution.

    Mine do the same thing but going up on the right side. Is that the way they're supposed to be? Will it change if I change the bulbs?

    That's backwards from the way they should be. The kick up is to illuminate roadside signs - which are on the right.

    Exactly..... assuming you live in the US or anyplace where you drive on the right side. Those headlamps are made for places like England or Japan where they drive on the left side.

    Projector headlights? Assuming the manufacturer accidentally put RHD projectors.
