Hey guys is there any way to level out 04-05 HIDs without using a leveling switch? Reason is I did an front end conversion on my 02, and I put 04 HIDs and they are pretty level but still not perfect. Any way to align them?

yes. there are adjustment screws on the back of the headlights. it is an 8mmhex/phillips that is angled in an easy to reach way

maybe i am wrong. i am not as familiar with 04-05's. i would assume there is left/right/up/down adujustment though. check out your owners manual.
