Tony,

Since you've projectors, you can more accurately align your headlights
using optical methods as described in the www.DanielSternLighting.com 
(I think? Other lister's chime in, doing this from memory) website. Once
I
did the 9011/9012 conversion/install I found that the filament alignment
is slightly different from the 9006/9007 bulbs anyway, so the bubble
level
is somewhat useless anyway (my alignment makes them appear to be 
only one line from tilted all the way up, and they still cut-off, by my
choice,
slightly low (don't like to glare other drivers).
