okay, i did a couple searches on aiming headlights, and didn't find my answer. I read the owners manual and still can't find the answer. The manual talks about using the built in level to aim the lights? Can't find it where it says it is. Do I have to remove the corners to see it?
 






After you lift the flap that covers the headlight rear area you will see a tab where the grill attaches to the body. Next to the tab(fender side) you will see the adjuster screw/rod. This controls the up-down.
The other, which is left-right, is further inboard and about in the vertical middle of the headlight.
I think you need a small socket to adjust them.
 






Thanks, that was a much better description than the owners manual.
