Hey guys got my new Solara just yesterday (moved up from a 2003 Matrix) and I'm loving the car. Quick question for you 2007 owners or any 2nd second owners, my right projector beam seems to be alot more defined than my right one (i can't even see my left one) and it the right has a very nice defined cutoff while like i mentioned the left almost seems like the light were to be off (its not cuz when I stand in front of it it does light just in a blur almost). I need to pick up my floormats anyway tom. should I have the guys at the dealership check it out or is it normal for them to be like that? thanks!

Normally, the driver's side headlight is aimed lower as to not blind oncoming traffic... this would make the passenger side headlight look more pronounced from a certain viewpoint (likely standing in front of the car)... try crouching in front of the car and see if the driver's side is still less pronounced...

not totally sure about the headlights but like cklinh some cars do have the drivers side light set lower, but then some cars headlights (like honda s2000) balance by themselves while driving.

but beyond that congrats on ur hot new ride...hope ya like it...couldnt live without mine
