I have a 93 SE and i set up the headlights (i think) so that they are just above bumper height when the car is about 5 feet away from the wall. As for adjusting the beams, there should be a **** on each headlight (look on the backs of them under the hood). Turn the **** to see which way makes the headlight tilt up.
Hope this helps
