So I have changed out my factory chrome quads for the factory black quads and also replaced the factory bulbs with zXes. I was following my wife home tonight and she called me and said my passenger headlight was way brighter than my driver side one. When we got home I looked and sure enough the passenger side is burning brighter. Even the high beam on the passenger side is noticeably brighter. Any idea on what's going on here?

I have LED rear and third brake lights but figured that wouldn't influence the headlights.

Any chance the brighter one is just pointed up higher making it look brighter?

I suppose so but the high beam is noticeably brighter as well. Are the high beams adjustable? I know how to adjust the lows but not the highs.

Try to swap bulbs from left to right and see what happens.
Hi beams adjust with the low beams.

It seems they were just aimed really badly. Much better now. The high does still seem a bit brighter on the passenger side, but not like before.

I want to say I paid like $250ish for them with a coupon code from Benny.
