Headlight Adjustment Question...
Well.....
Heres the deal.
I adjust the headlights in my garage with the car on and lights on until the "bubble" is in the zero section of the level (about 2 feet away from the wall). Then I pull out of the garage and onto a flat road, I check the level again and it seems the headlights are aimed WAY up high again.
Is this normal?
What am I doing wrong?
Where is the bubble supposed to be?

BTW, it's for HIDs, but it's the same concept with halogens

I think it should be fairly useful for members that want to use an aiming guide instead of asking around each time.
Drops from red line are the following.
DOT:2.1-2.5 inch
ECE: 3 inch
Good luck
