Default Help...can't get my headlights aligned...?

I just installed Euro Clear Corner Housings on my car, but i can't get the stupid lights aligned. One is higher than the other. I use the wall in the garage as a reference point and park about 10-15 ft away. the lights look 'appear' aligned on the wall, but when i test it out, one is still significantly higher than the other. Can I use the Vag to align the lights?

Default the euro xenons housings are supposed to look like that they have a "stair" look to them

the drivers side is supposed to be lower so you dont blind oncoming traffic.<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4/msgs/470320.phtml">some more info</a></li></ul>

Default Hmmm....

Any idea why my stair just keeps on climbing? It starts off normal, then begins to step up, but never levels back off like in the picture.

I've yet to be flashed though...
