Somewhat OT but general enough, project for tonight was aiming headlights on the Ghia. I had ordered new Koito lights from Dan Stern as the aftermarket headlights installed by a prior owner were garbage.
I followed the extremely detailed aiming instructions, measuring, setting up markings on a vertical board, even used a laser level to be sure things were as well set up as I could -- then when I switched on the lights to aim them, it wasn't like the instructions at all. No clear cutoff lines for the light -- just two blobs of light that were brighter in the center. So I just set those to the marks I had made then went out on the street and did a final tweaking until they looked about right. Just shows it's possible to geek out over anything when in reality, eyeballing it is going to be close enough.
