The problem with getting old is that my memory works just well enough to remember that I read something about a subject, but not where I read it !

My headlights in the down position appear to be below the lines of the front trunk lid. They are retracting about an inch too low. I recall as I mentioned a simple fix for this by disconecting power or something and readjusting something, but I have searched for the tech article to no avail.

Does someone out there have a better memory than I do, regarding that easy fix ? OR some suggestions ?

Isn't that what the adjuster screw is for?

As soon as I finish my coffee I will go out and take a look but I was unred the impression that that adjuster fixes the up position...but I have been wrong many time before.

The bolt is for "up" stop I believe. I adjusted mine level with the hood by loosening the pivot bolts, some in the trunk and some accessed inside the wheel well. Last time I only had to use the ones in the trunk. In my case they were not closing enough.
