yeah, if u want to see further, adjust the headlight aim. see ur owner's manual, pretty easy just make sure you dont blind on coming traffic or else u will increase the chance of being pull over or ppl fight back and shoot you with their high beam lol

Just a guess... but the 2011+ cars still have auto-leveling headlights (just not AFS)

In which case you likely still have the same problem of needing to adjust the level sensor like the AFS guys did.
