From 1999 on, some vehicles have lenses called “Visual Optical Left (VOL)” and “Visual Optical Right (VOR)”. The top of the beam
patterns on these lights are aimed based on each design.
VOL headlights are aimed on the left side of the screen. The top of the beam should be ste .4 degrees (2.096”) below the horizontal center
line left of the vertical center..
VOR headlights are aimed on the right side of the screen. The top of the beam should be set at the center horizontal line.

Aiming Procedures
Many composite headlights do not have a distinct “high
intensity zone”. When adjusting these lights you must locate the
area in the beam pattern that rises above the rest of the beam.
This part of the pattern shines farthest down the road and is
considered the “high intensity zone”.
Many late model headlights have patterns similar to the
European beam pattern. You should set these headlights
using the biased line as shown.
Some patterns do not have a distinct edge on the right side.
When aiming this type of headlight, ignore the right side of the
pattern. Simply locate the left edge of the high intensity area
that shines farthest down the road. This should be adjusted to
the centerline on the aiming screen. The top edge will normally
be easy to locate.
Vertical position of VOR Headlights is adjusted at the horizontal
center line of the aiming screen at the area just to the right of the
vertical center line of the screen. Vertical position of VOL Headlights is adjusted .4 degrees
(2.096”) below the horizontal center line of the aiming screen at
the area just to the left of the vertical center line of the screen.
