Default Adjusting angel eyes?

How do you go about properly adjusting the beam on the angel eyes? I just bought a pair and intstalled them and the beam is off a little bit.

I dunno about angel eyes headlights.. but you can do this anyway..

look at the back of the headlights if you see some screws/gears/bolts then those are the ones you can adjust.. adjust the headlights at night so youll see the beam pattern..

there should be 2 gear/bolts/screws at the back.. one is for adjusting height and the other for width of the light

Im not sure if the term width and height are the correct terms to call it but oh well

you were 90% right paulie.. one is for up/down, one is for left/right..

what i do is.. i cover up one side with a towel..then i go on a dark road.. adjust it so its giving me the perfect ammount of light.. then i do the same to the other side.. then when thats done.. i go park about 10ft from a wall, and i make sure the cut off line is continuous so that both projectors are perfectly alligned. so as you drive, one wont have the blue flicker, and the other one wont..they will both look exactly the same.
