There is a hex adjustment screw.
But I'll give you a hint - it is frequently better to intentionally stagger the right and left headlight aims slightly, particularly if your car has the OE HIDs. This helps keep slightly darker regions from both lights from lining up together ahead of you resulting in a dark patch. Set the driver headlight such that the top of the beam is as close to horizontal as you can without having lots of people flashing their high beams at you, and the right a little higher than that.
If you have fog lights, they will provide useful fill-in light up closer to the car.
