Ok, i bought these headlights from blue oval industries. See picture below.


I have had them on for a while now, but just today decided to adjust them

WELL, I cannot adjust them correctly. When i adjust them to center the beam, the center piece of the headlights stick WAY out, as in not flush with the corner or inner marker. For instance, the passenger side light as viewed from the front points excessively left. hopefully i explained that enough, or to be understandable.

So, does anyone else here have this problem with these lights

And no, the car was never hit in the front, everything is straight, the lights just are not aligning right

Any help is appreciated

Fox lights really don't align that well. Wether aftermarket or not. I have those in clear from Ebay and they kind of cross in the middle. Not much you can do about it.

Mine did the same.I ended up turning all the adjustment screws (cant remember how many exactly) until it was fairly flush with the center and outer light housings.Then i went from there and adjusted the beam.

The headlights I have on my car are original Ford headlights from a 93 cobra. I physically took them off the car and put them on my car. The lights fit perfectly when they were on the cobra but when i put them on my lowered car and aimed them they were off. Every car is different and mustang lights don't adjust all that well. If your car is lowered it may make a difference as to where they are aligned, thus making them stick out funny.
