  • What angle should the LED's in an LED headlight be at?

    I just bought a pair of LED headlights but am not sure if they are correctly fitted. They are the correct fitment for my car, the HIR2 model but I was wondering if I should rotate the fitting ring about 90 degrees..... At the moment when fitted the LED's in the bulb face to the left and right of the car but I was wondering if in reality they would work better if the were pointed up and down? At the moment there does appear to be a bright spot on the road but other than that they seem OK if not as bright as the HID's in my X-Trail,but better I think than the Halogen HIR2 bulb it replaced.
    Also, has anybody any experience of Horizon LED's? http://www.horizonleds.co.uk/ They initially got in touch to say I could have a refund then got back in touch to say they could source HID's for the HIR2 fitting but since last Thursday I have heard nothign back from them - tried Facebook, their Contact us page on the website, their Whats App phone number but get no answer!

    When I had them in my facelift they were left to right. They were from horizon leds and they were quick to answer any questions and even asked me to take some photos for their website which I did but they never put them on. More recently I contacted them to ask a couple of questions regarding their H7 leds and I never received a reply.

          There is a little grub screw which can be loosened off with the supplied allan key to allow you to rotate/
