I recently upgraded to HID lighting and I have the squirrel spotting too. I found the adjusters for headlight aiming to be practically useless. Any thoughts regarding eliminating the squirrel spotting and aiming?

Adjusting your headlights will not eliminate the "squirrel spotters." You would need to physical modify the shield to eliminate the squirrel spotters.

I eliminated my squirrel spotters with JB weld and using chopsticks through the bulb holes. I didn't bake and open up the headlights.

Well I baked & opened mines to install the tsx-r clear lens & get rid of the squirrel spots. Big *** difference. Before the swap I could light up 2 or maybe 3 lanes using the fresnel lens. Now I got the clear lens installed, I could light up 5-6 lanes easy. & distance increased 40%. I feel like my light output is similar to the honda s2000.
