[Biturbos4] Headlight alignment

Does anyone have "traditional" specifications for aligning the HID
lights on the B5 S4? The Bentley manual isn't much help: it covers
resetting the automatic light leveling via the VAG 1551, the location of
the mechanical adjusters, and the use of the "Hella Beamsetter"-- some
fiendish contraption for measuring and adjusting the lights.

Of course I don't have one of these. I just want to do the job in my
driveway, against a vertical wall and using a tape measure-- the way
people used to align lights.

Any tips?
