Guys, i am new here, so appreciate if there is any help can be found here.
i am in Japan, so, enough said about that... i have a 94 Accord, F22B. love the car, and tried to do the external kit myself, so i bought the LED Eagle eyes Head light (Black), however, after fitting to my car, i got pull over by cops said that my light sights are wrong, need to be corrected to japanese Spec..
there isn't any manual about how to change that... so, i am listing help from this form, hopefully, i can find some answers, like i said, any help will be really appreciated!

You want to get a good level,where it is safe for you to see,but would not blind oncoming traffic. Since im not to familiar with the headlights you have,but on oem housing,a screw mechanism levels the aim. Best way to aim is facing a garage door,or wall.Also find out where exactly they need to be aimed.

Measure the height of the middle of the projector to the ground on a level surface. At 20 feet away from the car, the projector cut off line should be 2 inches below the measured projector lens height.
So if the projector height is X, then the cutoff height should be x-2 at 20 ft away.

Also, Japan is right-hand drive, correct? Did you buy the projectors off eBay? Where were they shipped from?
Our projectors sold here in the US have a wider and higher beam on the right and a lower one on the left so we don't blind the cars driving at us from the left side.

I say "sorta" mirror-imaged, because each country can potentially dictate a particular shape to the beam. Some places it's sorta pie-shaped & others it's Z-shaped.

I'd keep looking for a RHD set, which would be hard to find, or start researching a projector retrofit. I'm sure there is a nice supply of right hand drive projector sets in JDM land. Hope you don't get offended by us calling Japan that, but you guys get all the goodies we don't
