Where is your headlight cutoff, OR what height is correct?

[coderedcomputing]

Wondering about where the headlights should be on the B6. My wife has commented when I'm driving behind her, that she doesn't usually see my headlights, almost as if they are pointed too low.

Wanted to know if anyone has any info on the proper alignment on the low beams for the B6.

If you measure your cut-off, and post up this measurement...and your car is lowered, also post how much lower your car is than stock.

Thanks folks.

I would like to know this too, and also know how to do the adjustment I can see one light pointing higher than the other one

www.danielsternlighting.com has good guidelines on setting the aim

If you have standard halogens there is a hex screw on the back of the housing (see the white hex in the red box)

do you see ok? I would only raise them if your having issues.. you dont want to blind on coming traffic by having them to high.

From my understanding you need some actual equipment to set them up correctly and follow VW procedures.
