Hello VV'ers,

I put halogen sealed beam headlights on my '65 last night and boy does it make a difference.  They're not the mythical "E-code" or anything, just $6 NAPA H5001 and H5006's.  They really light up the road and are much brighter (and whiter) than the T3/generic comb that I had.   But with all this new found light comes a question: are the headlghts oriented properly?  I didn't think about it before because they were so dim I couldn't really see the beams - now I can.  I checked the shop manual but it says I'm to use the T3 magic alignment tool or something.  I've checked my other sources (Tech Guides, How to... ) and haven't seen a "manual" way of aligning the lights.  Is there a reference somewhere obvious that I'm missing?  They're probably OK but I'd like to check 'em.  Thanks in advance.

mike
