The *** to adjust your headlights, should be under the rubber boot if memory serves correctly.

Don't know if ya noticed..... But my car has the 'sleepy' or 'lazy' eye's done to it...
Follow my link and you can't go wrong...
All the sleepy eye's is.... In simple terms... It's a kill switch linked to the 'power' wire from your switch that pops the lights up.. Turn kill switch on..(cut's power to the retractor switch) Turn 'on' your retractor button(which would normally pop up your lights, but because the kill switch is activated they don't) Then all you do is flick the kill switch off....(Lights re-act and start to pop up) Then you flick the kill switch back on so the lights stop in that spot...
Pretty simple man, not that hard.

Hes refering to the manual raise and lower *** on the headlight motor. Just pull the rubber cover off and presto.
