    your passenger side is supposed to be higher than your driver side...this helps not blind oncoming traffic when driving but still letting you light up the signs on the right side of the road...

    Yes there is a stepped pattern on modern projector housings to aid against blinding oncoming traffic.

    Check the Tech Forums for further info.

    Its higher up on the right side to also help spot animals(ie:deer) that you might not see if it was as low on the shoulder as your driver side. Odd, Ive never heard anyone complain that this was annoying before.

    Respond to a post with an answer, they will keep asking questions. Teach them how to RTFM, they will learn to help others.
