...and mike sobota spake unto the tribes of Usenet, saying...

I have always used the garage doors.  Drive right up, mark the lamp centres
with a felt pen, reverse in a straight line 10m or so, make the dots on the
doors into crosses.  When night falls, switch the lights on and aim the flat
edge of the dipped beam just below the horizontal line.  This should put the
main beam centres exactly on the centre of the crosses.  Play until happy.
I've done many vehicles like this, and I've never failed an MoT on beam
alignment yet!

HTH

find some flat ground with a wall. pull-up right ot the wall with main
beam on and draw big crosses where the middle of the beams are.
reverst 20 or 30 feet or so and then fiddle the screws so the beam
points at the middle of the crosses. thats a pretty good rough
estimate.

Is easy. measure the height of the centre of the headlamp from the
ground, and measure the distance between the centres of the headlamps.
Make crosses on a wall the correct distance apart, and the height of
the headlamps up from the ground. The vehicle should now be positioned
about 25ft away from the marks (on level ground), with the centre of
the vehicle in the centre of the two marks (ie the marks represent the
position of your headlamps if they were attached to the wall, not your
car)

Now adjust the headlamps so that the MAIN beams are aligned with the
vertical marks of the crosses, but with the centre spot of the beam
2inches below the horizontal lines of the crosses.

The diagram shows one headlamp, just apply the procedure to both
headlamps.
