don’t take offence man
i have too many asian friends for you to take offence! lol
i only suggested it because i had one of my asian friends change bulbs on one of my cars in the past – worked great!

those are high beams... the high beams are the ones on the top... and the low beams are the ones that are more lateral on the bottom u can't have your high beams without ur low beams on

Yeah you can. Just take the photo with the engine off, and pull your light stick back. You might have to use a string or something, cause it wont stay in place

Cause with the lowbeams on as well, its a bit hard to tell where exactly the high beams are aimed.

The low beam on the driver side is intentionally aimed lower then the passenger side to not "blind" drivers as they come towards you as much. BMWs had that on their lights for years (1 side lower)

I do wonder if it's possible to fix it so it makes an even cut off for both sides...

there is always a light adjustment, but drivers will have you if you bring that left light up more...
