Euro Lights on 200 TQ

[flderoos@mmm.com]

I recently bought a set of Euro lights that I'm putting on my 1990 200
TQ and have several questions.  First how do you align them.  There are
two black knobs, one being large with a gray outer knob and one small. 
The large black knob changes the elevation continuously, while the gray
knob seems to allow the lights to be angled up a fixed number of degrees
when it is turned to one extreme or down a fixed number of degrees
(possibly for the remote adjustment?) when turned the other way. 

The smaller black knob doesn't seem to have any effect.  Is this normal
or what could be wrong?  One of the large black knobs didn't change the 
vertical alignment until I reached in and reconnected it to the
reflector assembly.  I assume this smaller black knob is for left/right
adjustment. I don't want to mount them in the car until I'm sure that
they are working properly.  Also, can one align these lights without
alignment equipment and get relatively close?  I suspect that most US
facilities wouldn't know how to align the Euro lights.

Has anyone with Euro lights split the high beam circuit so that
the H3 bulb can be turned on and off separately from the high beam
of the H4 bulb?  This would be easy to do using the wire that is 
already routed to the connector for the small parking light bulb. Then
one could use the high beam of the H4 for normal driving and flip on the
H3 as a separate driving light.  I'm not sure how bright the H4 high
beam is, but it has to be brighter than the OEM 9004 bulb.

Finally how does one install the H3 bulb?  There are two alignment cuts
in the bulb, one square and one round, so it only goes in one way.  
There is also a small tab sticking out from the metal ring.  Without
bending this tab slightly, the bulb does not fit down flush in the
housing.  Is it normal to have to bend this tab?

I've searched the archives and although there is information on Euro
lights, I haven't seen anyone ask or answer the above questions.  I also
tried EMAILing questions directly to one of the listers in England who
probably has these lights, but he never answered???????  Any takers 
who have BTDT and can offer some guidance?

Thanks,
