Headlights OEM Subaru or Tesla
My 15 brz had a dial under the left side of the steering wheel.
Not sure about the Forester, but common issue on Outbacks. You can't adjust the brightness, but you can adjust the angle. You need a long shank Phillips screwdriver and you can angle the lights down a bit
Took my first drive tonight and DANG! These are so amazing! It’s really neat to see them in action first hand.
Just finished my retrofit upgrade to Matrix headlights on my 2023 MX. It’s really neat to see them in action first hand.
Man, I drive a Subaru. My apologies. You are getting the regular headlights, not hi beams. They’re just very bright. Sorry. ;(
Seeing fewer Teslas on the road, with their blinding headlights, has been a relief.
Tesla are the worst. Honda is next.
I find my 24 X headlights with and without Adaptive less effective than the ones in my 22 Y. X seems to leave a giant black spot about a car and half in front.
Tesla are the fuckin worst. If I get blinded 9 times out of 20 it's some ass in a Tesla.
The light bar on the new doesn't bother me, but the placement of the headlights sucks. They look dumb at night.
