Headlight levelling motor...
Sooo, I have replaced my broken (flooded) headlight levelling motor but I am unsure of how to check it is set correctly? Is there a way to do this outside of having to go to a garage with beam checking kit?
Cheers.

You could use the horizontal cut off of the other headlight as a reference.
Up against a wall or garage door or something like that. |

There are videos on ebay showing you how to do this using sticky tape, tape measure and a wall. In the meantime set by eye and walk down the road looking back at the car (with the lights on) to check that it's roughly right and not blinding oncoming traffic.
