how to setup s80 headlamps?

hi

my dip beams and high beams are all over the place, is it possible to
set them up facing a wall ect?

i heard about this some time ago, you can drive up to a wall or
building, so many feet away and using your ajusters under the bonnet,
set up your headlamps manually.

in the uk by the way r/h drive.

A wall is not a road a wall wont have exact markings, go into a dark
lot or road and adjust them for real life, its what I do.

You put markings on the wall, masking tape works well. If you get it set
up right on the wall, it will be right on the road as well. It's how
they are intended to be aimed.
