Default Aftermarket Headlights

I bought a set of basic aftermarket headlights/taillights from Trademark Carts a few months back. I installed them as outlined in the basic instructions that are provided but afterwards noticed that, once turned on, the beam is pointing up about 10 - 15 feet higher than where it should be. I called and emailed the vendor a couple of times but got no response. I don't see anywhere to adjust them... am I missing something here? The only thing I can find are the two screws that hold the headlight to the housing.

Here are the lights I bought: http://trademarkcarts.com/product/15...l-light-ccbblk

I don't see any adjustment on that set. Is your cart lifted? If so those are probably pointing up into the trees unfortunatly.

Actually, no, it's not lifted. It's all stock and the rear doesn't sag so not sure what's causing it.

I don't know. Its hard to say without seeing them. I couldn't see any adjustment in that picture, but it is a little hard to tell.

My buddy has a set of lights very similar to those, and they aren't adjustable,
He took a 1/4" thick piece of black plastic, the length of the light bezel,
and pinched it at the top of the bezel and body to get the lights to point down,
it worked for him and doesn't look all that bad either!

Just an idea

That's what I was considering doing, so thanks for the input. Il have to find some plastic that works. I had been trying to mess with the lights themselves initially but hadn't had much luck.

Are there any aftermarket lights like these that are adjustable? Ideally I'd like the OEM headlights but haven't come across a body that includes them for a decent price.

My OEM lights aren't adjustable either, I guess it's how and where they're mounted,
I've seen adjustable aftermarket lights, but, I can't remember where I saw them.

Yes they are available. The type that I have seen have an adjuster screw at the top of the light. You turn the screw in or out and it tilts the light up and down. Check the site sponsors, one of them may carry them.

Thanks! It's a Club Car brush guard, it came on my cart black powder coated, and I painted it!
