can headlight beam be made wider to light up turns? 2006 S60

Post by FMradio »

Hi. My 2006 Volvo S60 has the halogen headlamps and I wish that the low beam angle was wider. The headlights light the road ahead well, but they don't light the sides of the car well enough for seeing in turns.
The sides of the car are lit dimly, enough so it's possible to see, but the outer angles get a little dim for comfort. So it's hard to see if there's anything in the way when turning a corner.

Is there any way to increase the angle of the low beam? Thank you. My old Buick had these cornering lamps that would turn on when the turn signal was activated, which was really cool.
