leveling and throw adjustment are two different things.

That said, I don't know if or how to adjust the throw on the LED units, but you should be able to.

Incorrect. They adjust with an allen wrench, you can see it from the top of the headlights.

As a tip from my former X6M, you can adjust both lights, but if you do use the lights in auto, the left one will not show your adjustment due to the self leveling feature, until you move the light switch to the manual ON position, the right one can be adjusted in both scenarios, good luck!
