Hi, if u look closely behind the headlight, u see two circular items that look like an old-school coke bottle cap. They are low profile, so its kinda hard to spot from the top. Those things are mounted vertically, which means they are parallel to the radiator and perpendicular to the ground. Anyway, you'll need a long and thin phillips screwdriver of some sort to rotate it. One of the "bottle cap" is for vertical adjustment (up or down) and the other one is for horizontal adjustment (left or right). For the up or down, if u turn clockwise, ull go up and anti-clockwise to go down. I don't remember about the horizontal adjustment though. I'll take pics. later today to clarify things.
