Quick question. Of the two star headed screws (one on left and one on
right) for adjusting the driver's side headlight, which one changes
the vertical? Bonus points if you can tell me which way I need to
turn it to get the light to aim more downward. Right now, the light
is pointing up too much and not hitting the road.
Thanks. If you know, give your answer assuming I have the hood open and
i am facing the engine compartment.

Outer screw turned clockwise raises the lite.

verticle adjuster is the screw closer to center of the headlight and i
believe counter clock wise will adjust it downward.

does your answer contradict Shep's answer as far as which screw or do
you think the outer screw is the one closer to center of headlight?

typically speaking, a screw above a headlight will raise and lower it.
But it's such a simple thing I can't imagine that within two minutes you
wouldn't figure it out.
Just park the car on a flat surface with a wall in front of it, and
watch the center mark of the light on the wall move.
