Default LED Headlights

I got a pair of logo likes and wanted to ask if the bulb or led replacement should be horizontal or verticle? Red dot up or inside or outside?

Ammeter moves more for the cowl lights than the head lights now.

The "manual" says mark should be up, unless hi/low are reversed, then it should be downward.

I don't know how they claim they're for Model T and early A's (H-type lamps), since those cars' bulbs had vertical contacts.

I noticed the filament in the bulbs I took out weren't lined up the same. The sockets weren't lined up the same so I didn't know for sure how they should have been as original. I adjusted the sockets so the logo lights are horizontal. I haven't tried it at night yet but there is a noticeable difference. I hope I'm satisfied with them.
