Retro lights

[danfordfwh87]

just installed lights from jj and i have some questions......1st going from low to high back to low does anyone else have a half sec to a sec delay....and do they switch at diff rates? 2nd the pass side headlight looks like it dips down on the right side off it.....its not like the driver side where its nice straight across...3rd how it the heck do you know where to adjust them too vertical and horizontal

Im pretty sure the switching from highbeams/lowbeams is normal. i have that to if i remember correctly.

Heres how we can help you better if your projectors arent straight or need to be adjusted. park about 25 feet away from a wall at night and take a picture of the light, then cover up one headlight, take a picture of that, then cover the other, and take a picture of that! this way we can help tell you what you need to do.

Little tricks FastNugly taught me haha

Typically there is a delay in the highs deactivating, but they don't normally switch at different rates.

Cutoff, they will both have a bit of a bow on the ends, this is normal - but hit up some pics!

Adjusting, 25 ft from a wall, measure the cutoff at the heads, then at the wall (level surface). You'll want a 2" drop over the 25ft.

My lights have the same delay. My drivers side takes about a second longer when going from high back to low. I'm still trying to figure it out too. If you figure it out let me know. JJ sent me some tests to do I just haven't had time to do them yet.

yours are a tad different.

The 4th gens "trigger" the highs separately (1 at each light). the older trucks have a single trigger (pulled from the driver's side).

I did my retros useing Infiniti FX-R Projectors with factory ballast and D2S bulbs ( no China stuff here , I hit the high beam and the shields drop instantly . I even have the high beams where the can wig wag and left flash 3 time then right flash 3 times , then both so the match the LED hide away strobes
