Headlight adjustment...

Hey all. I want to ask those who know what is a correct factory adjustment for headlights. my max is 97 and when I replaced stock bulbs I readjusted the headlights. Now I notticed less visibility. I called a dealership and they gave me a price of 47.53 dollars to readjust the headlights to factory position. Well for that amount of money I might readjust them myself, but the only problem is that I dont know the factory adjustment.

In general. On a level surface, point your car twards a nice wall. ShopRite or A&P work great !!! Back up about 25 feet and look at your lights. The center or hot spot should be on the wall about 2 feet up.

Drive it around to make sure the lights hit the ground. Tweak it slightly up or down to your liking.
