Adjusted HID higher
I am not sure what the stock was but I adjusted 50 turns (clockwise). I remember that I read somewhere it’s supposed to be counter-clockwise to raise the HID head light and I did but it turns out to be clockwise so I actually turned 90 times for each light lol... I am gonna take it out tomorrow and see if anyone gonna flash me with their high beam...

Yes, I can't seem to find the horizontal one and I believe someone did it vertically only and have no problem with it? or should I get back there and locate the horizontal one?

if you dont do the horizontal the lights will criss cross. both are easy to reach, just look for a hole in the inner fender area just outside of the vertical adjustment you cant see it but a long phillips screwdriver will land on it perfectly if you poke it through the hole. you need to turn thoes adjusters the same as you did the other ones.

You don't need the manual to find the horiz adjustment. You cannot see the adj screw. Just look for a hole in the sheet metal, facing out to the side of the car. It's the only round hole that's about 3/8" in diameter. You can see the actual screw if you put your face and eye down about 4 inches behind the left vertical adj screw and look through that hole (might need a flashlight). When adjusting the horizontal screws, don't make the same mistake I did - trying to do it with a ratcheted screwdriver. My extension and phillips bit are still stuck in the right side one.

sorry i wont take a pic, i dont feel like it, i found mine right where the manuel said they would be. look for a hole in the sheet metal of the fender open to the engine side you will be going in at about a 45 degree angle toward the back of the headlight. the hole is located right at the front of the side engione covers, you need to remove the front engine cover to get to it.
if you dont adjust this adjustment your lights wont even be close to aimed correctly. when you adjust both its exactly as you would expect same beam pattern just a little higher
