Default Headlight alignment

So, after installing HIDs it seems that headlight alignment is a little up compared to what it should be. People don't flash me, but I just have a feeling that I should adjust downward.

Searching the net I do not see a DOT procedure for alignment. Does anyone know what the hight of the focus of the beam should be and at what distance? I know that local shops have a scale, I can probably go ask them.
