Head Light Adjustment
I lifted my 05 and need to adjust the head lights...People keep flashing me and then I flash back they realize my brights arent on, but light are quite a bit off the road. Has anyone done this to thier trucks?

Wouldn't the RIGHT thing to do be to take 5 minutes to adjust them? When I was younger driving at night was no problem but as we age our night vision deteriorates. When someone has high beams on or poorly adjusted headlights it makes it very hard for me to see. Creating a dangerous situation is in no ones best interest. The reason people FLASH you is to give you INFORMATION(that your headlights are blinding them). Use that info and try to correct the problem, not flash back like a smart ***.

99- Sorry for the tone of my last post. I interpreted it that you got some pleasure in "flashing" people rather than fixing the problem. When I got my 2004 F-250 a few people flashed me so the next day I adjusted the headlights. Problem solved. Speaking of headlights, have you tryed Sylvania Silver Stars bulbs? A much whiter and brighter bulb.

I tried them in my 99 but havent spent the $55 they are up to now on this pig yet. I was thinking about trying the PIAA but havent heard much about them.Plus I wasnt ready so I havent researched whether they are legal or not.
