    after changing and headgasket and cat im looking at the other MOT failures.
    the MOT sheet read,

    Nearside headlamp too high and too far to the right....
    Offside headlight to high

    the up and down adjustment is easy i know..

    but how do you adjust left to right??? is there even a way?

    and how far off up should the beam be from the ground? i thought as long as theyre level it doesnt matter....

    cheers

    Check its bolted in straight and the clips for it aren't broke/bent and should face straight

    There are manual adjusters on the back of the headlights

    just ask the MOT station to adjust them, it takes a few secs
