Just go park facing a wall when they are fitted and mess around with the 2 things that turn on each headlight. one will be for up and down and the other will be the angle. I adjusted my headlights like this and they are fine. Or you can go down to a garage that does MOT's and ask them to put it on there equipment which checks light beams and get them to adjust if needed.
 
minor issue with the angel eyes.


my dad has agreed to help me so i can align them properly etc.

so will be marking out the normal beam pattern on my fence and then swapping the headlight units and adjusting accordingly.


however. he has now at the last minute request i prove they are uk street legal (preferably using the DVLA) and that they will not invalidate my warranty (or if they do which part of or the whole warranty).



ive got the details abut the warranty off fiats website and will check my manual/warranty documentation i had with the car as well and have managed to find multiple ebay listings and websites refering to them as e marked but no further information.


any ideas as to where i can find this information?
