If you feel your Xenon headlight low beam is a bit too low, here is how to adjust:
1. Find BMW screwdriver in the first aid kit
2. Find vertical adjustment screw for each Xenon headlight.
3. Adjust vertical adjustment screw on each side.
Do not exceed 1 full turn or you will blind other drivers.
Note: Lateral adjustments are usually not necessary.

- Clock wise: down
- Anti-clock wise: up.
