Just remove the screws and put some washers between the post and the bumper assembly, that will point the lights a little more downwards.
I see what you are talking about. I'll throw a few washers on it this weekend. I may see if I can find some sort of removable film to put on it to tone it down.

Good potential solution.

Here's an alternate solution. Get the DoubleTake body kit w/LED lights. I wasted a lot of time and money with these other solutions. Now they function like low beams. PS Revolution Golf Cars is your source for these.

I see what you mean about the screws on the side. I'll pick up some washers and add them this weekend. Thanks for the tip!

Does your cart have a 48 to 12 volt converter or is it hooked up to 2 of the 8 volt batteries in the pack? My 2011 Precedent had a light kit already installed when I got it. I discovered the lights where run off 2 batteries sending about 17 volts to the lights. They were nice and bright [emoji4] Had to add a converter to run things properly. That toned the lights down noticable.

When I installed the lights I installed a 48-12v reducer and a 48V relay. The pic attached is while I was doing the wiring. I cleaned it all up and zip tied them together. The relay allows the lights to run only when the key is turned on. I learned all of it watching videos on YouTube by Wayne's Golf Carts. He has great videos on Club Cars for DIY. I emailed him a couple times, very nice guy, very knowledgable. Look up Wayne Martin on YouTube

I bought some inexpensive headlight film. Was easy to put on, but didn't reduce the light at all. The LED lights are like having high beams on all the time.
