My right headlight is aimed a little lower than my left one so I've tried repeatedly to adjust it without success. I'm trying to adjust that white plastic gear-looking thing. It looks like you can use an allen key/screwdriver to adjust it from the top or some ratchet to adjust the gear itself. I tried the screwdriver first but the thing was so tight I think I messed up the pattern inside. Then I tried the allen key but I couldn't find the right size, it seems to be something between 7/32" and 1/4". I tried looking for a 15/64" but couldn't find one then I tried looking for a metric set but they were sold out. I tried a ratchet set but I had to use an adapter and the whole thing wouldn't fit in that space. So then I buy a wrench set, find one that fits, but I was only able to turn it about 1/2 turn clockwise before it started to slip so I might have stripped that now! Even after that 1/2 turn I didn't see a difference in the height at all, up or down. Is it this hard to adjust the headlight?? :banghead:

Yup....mine were b!tches to aim b/c my alarm horn is right there. I went too high and now I blind people but f-'em, I'm not dicking w/ those lights again...I feel your pain. -
You can use a 10mm socket to adjust the US lamps. On the back of the round thing that looks like a gear is room for a socket. I adjusted my lamps so much before that I striped the place for the alan wrench and a screwdriver.Comment

Yeah I tried but I couldn't fit my ratchet in there since it also needed an adapter. Then the wrench I used started to slip after half a turn so I was scared of stripping that too.Comment

Time to find the socket.
