Before going to the dealer, I pulled off the engine bay covers and took a look. It's really simple to do, all you need is a phillips head screw driver.

I think the front lights are cross-adjusted... meaning that it isn't set up so that one screw simply goes up and down, and the other one left and right. IIRC, one moves it on one diagonal, and the other screw on the other. So it may take some time to get it exactly where you want it.

On a side note, I argued with the dealer for nearly an hour over this b/c they told me "adjustments" weren't covered by warranty. But since he had done the work without asking me, he couldn't charge me anyway. Idiots.
