How are CTR headlights?

[Type-JZ]

How are the headlights? I believe these are called "jeweled" LED headlights? Are they indeed as bright as HIDs? I don't have one, so I don't know. I was hoping R would have at least HIDs, but if LEDs are better, fine w/ me! Anyone has pictures of the cut off.
Sorry, i'm outdated on modern cars. Way out dated. Our TSX has the HID, but that's about it. And we got it used.

It's pretty bright. Mine may need to be adjusted a little, as it looks to be pointed down more than it is pointing further straight.

Same... Was driving on a pitch black road and it was hard to see what was coming up.. The cut off is razor sharp so I wanna make em a bit higher

Very bright and clear, better than my Tlx headlights honestly... high beams are extremely bright

You can adjust them by turning a knob behind the headlights using a phillips screwdriver. Someone posted instructions that was pulled fron IN somewhere. Perhaps someone can post it in here also and sticky that mofo.

Edit: found it!

Great info! Drove for a bit last night and the headlights are very bright.

so no one's been flashed from on coming traffic, right? So sounds like the cut off is good!

I get flashed about once a week on average with mine.

Nope. I haven't been flashed yet and I drive quite a bit at night and dawn

Do these adjust according to flex in the suspension?

I drove in the dark last night finally. Headlights are bright but there is like 0 cutoff. These lights have no cutoff compared to the MDX, S2000, or any of the projectors I have from TheRetroFitSource.com.

No, no self-leveling
