do a search for other things about it but i believe you flip up your head lights, pull the fuse, then reach under neat and find a gear like mechanism, spin it to lower them to your liking, removeing your FTP's will keep you somewhat safer, but this is a rather dumb thing to do

disconnect the motor, there is a plug next to the head light assembly, then go under the car and turn the **** on the motor till you get them where you want them

Or the easiest way..... take out the retractor fuse under the hood, then turn on the lights on. Tap the removed fuse in the fuse hole till you get it to were you want. Then to return to normal put the fuse back in and everything is returned to stock. boda bing

If you had actually searched you would've found it, this has been discussed way too many times.

Why would you want to make your car look sleepy?

Why would you want to make your car look broken?

i pulled the clear lenses out of the flash-to-pass thingys and disconnected my headlight motors... it looked pretty ****** cool, but unfortunately my 9000K HID bulbs weren't bright enough like that LoL...
