Lift the flaps just above the headlights, if you still have that plastic shield which covers the radiator, ac condensor etc. - it has the belt diagram other info and what not on it. Once you lift it look down there and you will see 2 light adjusters. You want to adjust the top screw (not the one on the side) - clockwise raises the light and counterclockwise lowers the light. Pull up to a wall and turn on headlights and to the adjustments. Peace

he's right, you're missing something, guero. there are plastic pieces that are screwed onto the long bolts that stick out of the headlights. they have 4 points sticking out of them--grab them and turn.
