Headlight height adjustment

Are there manual adjusters on the headlights? I think my drivers one is sitting slightly too high. If so, anyone got a diagram on which one is for height and which is for left / right adjustment?

Yours should be same as mine--- M8 here and I did adjust mine slightly up after lowering...

The white section is where you will take the star tool or whatever its called (phillips works too) and I do believe counter clockwise raises the lamps. Make sure to mark your points on a wall pre adjustment so you maintain consistency on both ends.

Vic55 thanks mate, much appreciated. Where abouts roughly is that adjuster? Usually there’s one for height and one for left & right adjustment, so want to make sure I get the right one! Do you have any pics more zoomed out pointing to where it is? Thanks!

you should only see the white one which is up down--- the left right is not so prevalent compared..
