Default 1993 Accord Headlights

My brights are fine but low beam is very poor and suspect that even with adjustment they never would be good. Does anyone know of some after-market solution, maybe fog lights? thanks

Thanks for the reply... they are not foggy and the left is aimed lower than the left. An adjustment would, I know, help but they are not nearly so bright as those on my other, much newer cars. I see some after market lights that replace the side lights and act as fog lights.
I do not know how to adjust these. Is that a difficult task?

from working in a body shop for a while i learned that if u put ur car in a garage with a level floor facing the garage door you can adjust ur headlights pretty easily turn ur lights on and get a phillipshead screw driver and aim ur headlights until they look even from behind the car ( after each adjustment go to the rear of ur car)with the lights on and look at how they look it may take a while to get them perfect but they'll eventually be adjusted if its ur 1st time itll take a few tries but ull get it. if ur still not happy after theyre adjusted u can get fog lights of if u have the $ get a good set of H.I.D.'s

Thanks a million heavyhitter92,

Can it get to the adjustment screws by just lifting the hood or is there something else I have to do to get to them? I will give it a try. What are H.I.D.'s?
