Hello everyone, I would like to know how to make sure my headlight is aimed correctly. I think mine MIGHT be a little high.

If I can see the road clearly then it's high enough. If not, I raise it. Until I get frequent flashing from oncoming cages with low beam selected. Then it's too high. That pretty much teaches me where to set it - and don't need to rely on the flashes after that. I find this method to be the definitive height indicator, as opposed to any measurement method (which is a good place to start). Measure the height to the center of the headlight. Mark that spot on a piece of cardboard on the wall. Adjust the spot so it hits that point. Then go test drive it and fine tune as above.
