Hi folks,

Does anyone know what horizontal distance is required so that the height of the headlight output is level with the shine at the wall?


Example pic: The horizontal distance in red in the picture. Green line is the wall.

cheers in advance

there is no real specific distance.

I did mine at about 2.5-3meters. use a car which you think is correct, put masking tape in the right places (the slants at the top of the lights) then use your car (with the HEADLIGHTS) at the same distance.
