I do not want to give up DLR but the low beams do not go out far enough.
Any suggestions on how to improve the low beams?

 

Have you tried adjusting/aiming the headlights? It's not at all uncommon for them to be adjusted low from the factory.

 

Yupp i double the adjustment idea.

 

Ok you talked me into adjusting them. I did the 25’ away from garage door. Then I put my truck beside the FIT and compared the lights. They were about 8” to low it made a huge difference.

 

Glad that made an improvement.

The other thing I always do is drive around the neighborhood, preferrably dark streets, and pay close attention to where the upper light cutoff is as you drive past cars parked on the street. You can usually tell if you're lighting up just bumpers and license plates or if you're actually putting light into the cabins. Sometimes I'll even pull over maybe 25-50 yards behind a parked car and get out and take turns standing in front of each headlight. If you have a helper that can stand in front of the other light, you can adjust one while watching the light on the car ahead.
