Headlight alignment guidelines?
So I know how to align the headlights, but... how should I align them? How do I know if they're too far up, or down, how much to the left/right, etc?
After changing my bulbs I noticed that my right headlights are definitely pointing too far to the right, but aside from correcting the obvious, what are the optimal/factory angles for them, and how do I go about getting those angles?
Thanks!

Run down to the bottom of this guide and theres an explanation on settings.
Its actually for the T84 Euro headlights which have a dual filament single bulb but the adjustment principle is the same.
