What? That's not the way to do it. Here:

The U.S. vertical aiming standard is 2.1" of drop at 25', or 8.4" per 100'. Measure the distance from ground to the headlight centers, and aim the flat part of the beam cutoff at 25' distance (against a vertical wall) to be 2.1" below the headlight center height. Cover one light with something while you're aiming the other light, and repeat for the 2nd light. Aim the lights straight ahead for the horizontal.
