Angling the lights does not account for using a beam pattern designed for a bulb with a horizontal filament on a system which involves a vertical arc discharge.
It's akin to saying you can use a transmission off an A-series on an S-block if you drill new bolt holes. Just because you can sort of make it fit does not mean it works properly and safely. More importantly, North American cars are stuck with U.S. Department of Transportation headlights which require 50 per cent of the light to be aimed upwards (1950s regulation aim to illuminate unlit overhead signs). There is no way to angle such headlights to prevent throwing a lot of light too high (as in towards oncoming drivers) while still properly illuminating the road ahead. Projectors are not necessary (Nissan Altimas have HIDs in a reflector housing meant for HID lighting). Proper beam patterns, matching the light source, are. |
