    I recently installed acanii headlights on my 2014 tundra. It seemed it was plug and play. For some ready the beam shines straight down and even when adjusted with the switch all the way up they only shine about 2 feet in front of the truck. I missed something Somewhere but can’t figure out what it is . Any advice would be greatly appreciated

    You need to aim the headlights first. Set your switch to zero.
    Drive up to a flat wall on a flat surface. Mark your light beam on the wall with "+" for each headlight.

    Backup straight 25ft. Adjust the beam to your "+" on the wall. Lower it 2" from the "+" ...

    That should help. After this you can now use your level switch when you need it.

    Thanks ! The issue I’m having is I have only installed headlights before that you manually adjusted height . I cannot seem to figure out how to adjust the height on these that have the connection in back of headlight with adjuster motor on it . The only thing I see is the small screw used to mount this onto headlight itself.

    Can you take a photo of the back of the headlights?

    Stick a long screwdriver down to this gear wheel. Thats your up and down adjustment screw.E86FFE53-CCD5-4062-B471-BCFF67ADF9F6~2.jpg
