Anyone experienced dazling lights on a UK300?

Nearly every car that I meet flashes at me! I'm told the lights are very bright (seems to be one light only)- also complaints about the tint!. Would appreciate if anyone could shed light on the subject!!!!

I had exactly the same problem, continually getting flashed when on dipped beam. When I checked the dipped light beams against a wall, I found the drivers side beam a lot higher. I removed the air duct which sits over the drivers side light and found that there is three brass screwed rods which I assume was for adjustment of each lens of the UK300 lights. If you adjust it you can actually see the beam move down the wall. I am not sure now if the beam alignment is OK but will get it checked under warranty at the next service. It seems to have cured the problems of other drivers flashing. Perhaps Mike Wood of Prodrive can tell you the proper way to set the beam using the screwed adjusters fitted.

My UK300 lights seemed to be very high when the car was delivered and I was getting flashed consistantly. Because of the morretts, I thought the headlight leveler wouldn't work but after a fiddle with it, the head lights are now down to the correct level. Have you tried this?
