on back of the headlights, there is a screw which you can screw it counter clockwise if you want or the other way if you want, and a up and down screw. just look for both of it.

There are two adjustment screws. One points up and one points back.

Great pic of the adjusters. Best way is to pull up next to a wall on level ground and make the adjustments. We had an expensive tool to do this in the dealer and most of use just used a wall and works just fine. Just make sure you dont point the drivers side too much to the left or youll get flashed all the time even with the low beams on.

On level surface, mark center of lights on wall ( I use tape and you can make a wall of board or cardboard, etc.) when about 3' away. Then back straight up to about 25' away and adjust beams to match marks. JMHO, but that's how I was told to do it.
