      1.position masking tape vertically on the wall in reference to the vehicle centerline and the centerlines of both headlights.(position tape with the car only a few inches from the wall)
      2.position a horizontal tape line in reference to the center of all the headlights.
      3.adjustment made with car 25 ft from wall, sitting level, half tank of gas, and no unusually heavy load.
      4.starting with the low beam adjustment, position the high intensity zone so it is 2 inches below the horizontal line, and 2 inches to the right of the headlight vertical line. (adjust as needed)
      5.with the high beams on, the high intesity zone should be vertically centered with the exact center just below the horizontal line.(it may not be possible to position the headlight aim exactly for both high and low. if you must compromise go with the low since you use them more often.)

      i'll try to get a pic of how the wall lay out should look like.
