Guys,

Newbie here - 2020 Premium SR5 4X2, dark gray metalic

Long story short, I ended up with an aftermarket headlight housing and who knows what kind of lamps are in there. The DRL beam looks weird. This is on the drive side.

The beam pretty much points straight down and I cannot crank on the headlight to adjust the direction, no matter how many times I turn the gear. I tried a phillips and an 8mm wrench.

Is it a matter on replacing the projector housing with an OEM part? (which I think is the answer)

Any help would be appreciated.
