aiming projector headlights

sup guys, just a quick question, i got TYC headlights and they are totally out of whack.

i want to aim them correctly, but i cant seem to find the proper directions or numbers for the height etc. soooo does aqnyone know what distance my car shoudl be from the wall, and how high my lights should be, and what distance the cutoff lines should be from eachother?

thanks in advanced, ill post cutoff pics when i do it

just wait and do the retrofit. you'll be much happier.

even though i have a decent cutoff, the light dispersion isnt too good. its better than stock ill tell you that. im going to try retrofitting maybe in the summer or something.

here's hid kit in my friend's cl compared to mine. he blinds the shit out of me lol.
