I could have swear somewhere in the faq mentioned headlight beam adjustment but for the life of me, I couldn't find it.

I remember something like 'park the car 25feet away from the wall and the beam should be 3 feet high or something'. Am I correct?

I got and printed the PDF file on how to adjust the headlights.. however theres something different from the pdf and with the actual head light assembly.

on pdf theres 2 places to adjust vertical and horizontal.with a screw driver.. but when I opened it up.. theres only 1 vertical and its in the place of the "horizontal" adjustment on the pdf.

There are two ways you can adjust you lights.
With your head lights up look on the out side
of the light there is a long slot you can take a long screw driver and you have to feal your way until you hit the screw . It will only adjust a little bit before it returns to its orignal postion. If its not high enough take your cover off and you can see four bolts losen them up and pull up on the front of the light. And push down on the back Then re tighten. The adjuster on top of the light is for horizontal the vertical is hidden on the bottom and back of the light.
Hope this helps.

If you take the four bolts off the head light it will slide out and you can get to both adjusters if the vertical is not working you can switch it with the horizontal ones. Its two philps screws that hold it on. Let me know if you need more help
