There is an adjustment screw on the back of each headlight for raising or lowering the aim. It takes either a screw driver or 10mm socket, you'll need the socket for the drivers side because there is limited space. Its been great to drive at night again! Note: counterclockwise will raise the aim!

Hi all...I bought a 10mm box end wrench, I think that's what they're called. Anywho, one side has a 10mm ratchet and the other an open ended box wrench. It works great for adjusting the lights and for the battery terminals and all the other 10mm fasteners, without having to dig out a tool box to get the right socket. Toss it in the Glove Box and it's always there when I need it.Dave

Those 10mm nuts have a toothed collar on them that allows you to wedge a phillips under them. I find it a lot easier to turn the screwdriver than using a wrench.
