    Had my headlight aim set at an m.o.t station,drivers side is as the picture indicates below,but the passenger side ''kick up'' dont go all the way to the end,it stops where the arrow is,where it say's ''image kick up'' .

    The tester said that ok,i just wanted you guys to check,see what you think,if my left handside headlight is stoping exactly where the arrow is(image kick up) is this ok or will i be losing light,getting less on the road or something,the drivers side is exactly like the picture below,and finish's rite at the end,just like the picture below.

    The European E-Code cutoff shield has a much larger 'Z-Pattern' step, which gives more illumination for road signs.

    The UK 'step' in the beam pattern is much smaller.

    Does the beam pattern for that headlamp just stop there (no more light to the left of arrow)

    Or does the beam pattern level of again (go horizontal)
