Default how do i align my head lights

i just put in my brighter bulbs and i seemed have screwed up[ the alignment of the bulbs. when they're on most of the light from the left bulb goes off into the void to the left so i can pretty much spotlight deer off my left side while the front is lighted just by the right bulb. so how do i fix this problem? and by the way i do infact feel like an idiot driving around with my lights like this.

there are two screws coming out of the top of the headlight housing, they stick out about an inch, just loosen them and you'll notice that you can move them around like joysticks. They control the movement of the mirrors that aim the beam of the light. In order to align them properly, park the car about 20 feet away from a large wall (at night) and make sure that your car is on level ground. Adjust the headlights until they look right on the side of the wall.

Goto Autozone, they sell a alignment tool for headlights. Any autoparts store will have them, they are like $5.
