I do know the 08 HID setup has a leveler within the cockpit (I just like saying that). You need that and the motors or you might need to manually adjust the angle.

Well, with most cars, they have little ***** behind the headlights that you can screw up or down.

Here is my 30 second google search for you: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/in...5131425AAMamDL

Since you have an 07, you might wanna use the right forum area so someone will see it that has the version you have. Good Luck man...

You didn't specify whether you drive an '07 2.5, WRX, or STI. Did you install an aftermarket HID kit into your car? These are not the same as factory OEM equipment HID headlamps.
