Headlights adjustment
Having recently mounted the A-bar driving lights and replaced the halogen headlights by xenons, I need to adjust all of them to the factory specs. Is there anything like ajustment pattern I can use to adjsut the settings while pointing the lights towards a wall? D3 LE James Cook, 2,7 TDV6 auto

Do they need adjusting if you have air suspension? I believe that every human has a finite number of heart-beats. I don't intend to waste any of mine running around doing exercises.

The driving lamps need adjusting, no doubt about it.
The xenons - well, you need to switch them to the LHD/RHD mode using the internal lever, but still, there is further adjustment possible.
The auto-level is of course provided by the air suspension.D3 LE James Cook, 2,7 TDV6 auto

Any ideas? Or do your driving lamps shine more like Star Wars light saber duel? D3 LE James Cook, 2,7 TDV6 auto

if they're the LR driving lamps the mounts are not the most sturdiest - I just had them so they pointed downwards 'a bit' - never had to pass an MOT with them though so no idea whether I would have been tripped up with them like that
besides - driving lamps are there ONLY for dazzling the tw*t who has just cut you up in a queue - I used to enjoy giving them the 10 bulb (rack lights never wired so 14 bulb not possible) treatment through their mirror in the last D3 Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

Once I got a full high beam from a train going on a track in the opposite direction. Man must learn his lessons to get a bit careful D3 LE James Cook, 2,7 TDV6 auto
