I don't know on the 9K, but on E-codes I've had in other cars (VWs, Volvos and a C900) I just aimed them from about 25 feet back from a garage door or wall and had the low beam cut-off about 3 feet off the ground with my butt in the driver's seat. There's probably a write-up on this somewhere because E-codes all have a similar cut-off. Maybe on the Hella site? Once the low beam is aimed the high beams should be OK.
You found SilverStars to make a difference? I probably ought to try those first. They are the same wattage as stock bulbs but a different color temperature: The yellow light of the standard bulbs doesn't fill up a dark road the way the whiter light of the SilverStars will.
For add-on lights, fogs belong below the bumper and driving lights above, as a rule of thumb. I really want better fogs, and for Bullwinkle and Bambi spotting, driving lights would be nice. I just want to do this right and so it looks good.
