The present invention relates to a headlight setting test device comprising a lens, which directs an image of the tested headlight on a monitor, comprising a data memory, which stores the height difference between the contact area of a rear wheel arranged on the side of the relevant headlight being tested and the contact area of the corresponding front wheel or a value corresponding to said height difference, and comprising a correction possibility—taking account of the relevant height difference or value—for the position of the image on the monitor, as a result of which the effect of the height difference on the assessment of the relevant setting of the relevant headlight is able to be compensated for. The invention furthermore relates to a headlight setting station, a headlight setting device and a method for testing a headlight setting.
