They can be adjusted manually with the horizontal and vertical adjustment screws like any other headlight, however, having had a new headlight I’d be inclined to have VW align them using their scan tool given that they are matrix lights, did you reuse the original LED ballasts in the new light?? If not they would likely need to be coded to the comfort module, but if you don’t have any headlight faults then this would be a non issue.
