Yup.  E-code lights are aimed by measuring some marks on a wall... measure
the height of the center of your headlights, make a mark on the wall 2
inches lower than that, back the car up so that it is 25 feet from the
wall.  Adjust the lights so that the cutoff is right at the mark you made.

Yep, NAPA sells H4 and H1 bulbs in both stock wattage (55/60) and overwatt
(100/130)  If you use the overwatt, you MUST install a relay
system.  Also, don't forget that the H4 bulbs and the standard american
sealed beam use the same connector, but the order of the pins is
different.
