Default Headlight????

Okay, 1 How do you change the bulbs? Well the driver side if you move the battery you can get to the bulb but what about the passanger side? Everything is in the way to get to that one. 2, How do you adjust the headlight? I got one in right field and one searching for UFO's . I hope one of you guys dealt with this one.

Open the hood and pull up on the two metal tabs on top of the black part of the headlight assembly. They should come up a few inches and the headlight assembly will slide out through the front. You can easily reach the headlight bulb now. Unhook the wiring harness and turn and remove the cap holding the bulb in place.
To adjust them you need to raise the hood and look on the top, black part of the headlight assembly towards the grill side on both lights. There is a round hole with a place to use a phillips screwdriver. Turn the screw in or out to adjust your headlights.

You know when you feel like an idiot? THis is one of those times. Although, I looked all around the light for this phillips head screw adjuster but the only thing I saw was on the top inside part of the lens but that was a 5 sided allen looking thing not a philips. I had the tool so I turned it both way but when I turned it to the right all the way down it moved but not by much? Is this the right thing? Also, The part ( or bulb housing ) inside the lens moves. I am suspicious that this is not suppose to do that. The pass side feels sturdy but I did not jiggle it hard. Think I need a new lens?
