Headlight issues-photo request
I have been having problems getting my headlights back to 'normal' after having one replaced. The body shop I went to is apparently as clueless as I am in this area. I have a mental picture of what the headlights' projection should look like, but it would help me immensely if I could have a picture of properly functioning headlights to use as a reference.
Just to give you an idea of what I mean, here are my headlights (from th hood looking outward). The last two I stood in front of each headlight to show the individual sides. Thanks in advance.

He's as bad as Can
Without knowing how far away your car is from the wall we can't duplicate that pattern. But I might be as clueless about this as you, I do not see what's wrong. It is normal for the drivers side been to be a little lower that the passenger side.

It is possible I am just crazy, but I dont seem to remember the circular shadows before. I do however remember the elbow used to line up perfectly with the center divider on a two lane road. Now it is closer to the right side of my lane. I guess it just needs to be adjusted left a little. Also, in the pictures the right light (the original one) is a straight line, while the right one (last picture, replaced headlight) both sides of the elbow angle up. Everything might be fine (see first sentence), I am just looking for a second opinion.
(for the pics: I think I was about 15 feet from the door)
