aiming headlights is a long and painful process. there is a diy floating around thats 10 pages long with all kinds of pic and measurements you need to take. a quick and dirty way would be park on level ground. stand up next to the headlight and remember where on your leg lines up with the center of the headlight from the ground. then walk 25 ft in front of the car. kneel your head down 4 inches below where the lights lined up with your leg. you should see the headlights normally still with no glare but as soon as you move your head farther down, it should start to get really bright and glarey.
