    Hey Repenttokyo, do you know a garage that can do the headlight adjustment?

    do a search on the board, I think there are pics. You need to use the screws on the front which you can reach through the grilles, in conjunction with the adjusters on the rear.

    It's time consuming, but it works. you need a wall and level ground and maybe 30 to 45 mins depending on how stiff your adjusters are. mine were brand new and super stiff - it's also a very awkward area to get your hands into.
