Hey, I have a '93, and I just replaced my headlights, and I never noticed how off my healights were. I found the vertical adjustment on the headlight, but I can't seem to find a horizontal adjustment screw, or anything of the like. When I bought the car, the owner didn't have the owner's manual to go with it, and I still haven't found an answer with any search engines. I was wondering if someone could tell me where the horizontal adjustment is.
Thanks

there is a horizontal and vertical adjustment. i have it in my haynes book....u know the vertical one is that screw, well the horizontal one is a screw gear thats inside a plastic thing that can be turned with a flat head i believe....

its if u are on the driver side one, looking at the car, its before the high beam headlight. near the radiator. its a plastic thing that has 3 stud screws " to adjust the light horizontally instert phillips screwdriver into this gear mech at the lower right cornre of the back side of the headlight assem and rotate the screwdriver left or right...."

:D

oh, found it, yeah, i got my haynes book a few days ago, it's kind've small for most of the screwdrivers that i have, the frame kinda blocks the screwdriver from being able to be put in straight up and down, but i still managed it in
