DIY headlight bulb replacement should be banned. You ought to have to

Changing a bulb for one of the correct type won't alter the beam setting.
What is more likely is the car has been damaged and repaired and the new
unit not adjusted correctly. If a new car, this won't be picked up until
the first MOT.


Putting the bulbs in upside down will alter the beam setting.
