Mine is going in next week, for the 2000 mile or 2 month check. I am getting a couple of bits done too, so they were more than happy to book it in...
I have asked for them to look at my headlights too, as I am sure they are too high - seems like others have had similar 'high headlight' experiences.

l have been flashed a few times in our new Jimny by oncoming motorists as well.
Particularly if l am going uphill or over the top of any slight hill and there are no street lamps.
l think it's partially to do with LED headlamps in general, they are just so damn bright, and the light is so piercing, many new cars seem to be the same.
Plus you don't get a manual leveller as with ordinary headlamps.

Give them a flash back, they will soon see that they weren't on full beam...

Just had my 2,000 or 2 month check - the headlights were too high - they put it on the MOT ramp (?) and had to slightly adjust. Soon see if I get flashed on the way in to work tomorrow at 06:00!
