Headlight level still too low after adjusting
Hi guys,
I just updated my headlights to LCI Halogen and I've used the up/down and left/right adjuster under the bonnet but my drivers side is still way too low to be affective at night.
I understand that the driver's side is significantly lower to avoid any oncoming traffic but I think it just needs another full turn on the adjuster to be right. At the moment it's pointing way too low.
Is there a way to further adjust the headlight? maybe by un-tightening the screws or position the headlight further in/out.
Any help?
Thanks

Yeah I've tried both methods from both threads earlier today and still nothing 
I'm just not too sure how else to adjust the headlights.
