hi low beam adjustment
Adjusted the headlight (stock) per manual and still doesn't seem right. As I was behind a truck at a stop light I flashed low to hi and I could see that the bulb was switching from left to right as opposed to up and down. Is my bulb not in right or is that his it should be?

a US DOT spec proper low beam cut off pattern would be like you held a hockey stick horizontal out at arms length, with the blade to the right pointing up.
so at low beam the spread is higher on the right side.
try again in front of a garage door or a white wall, you'll see if the pattern is correct.
European "E Code" uses another standard, as does teh UK and others who drive on the left
