If you have the owner's manual, it's in there.
Otherwise, if you look behind each headlight up towards the frame rail there's little metal discs that have philips head screws in them, these actually do the adjusting, but use the philips on the head, cuz you'll loosen the discs. I just wanted to give you an idea where the discs are located on the headlight. To adjust these discs, you'll see on the front frame rail/radiator support, there is a hole next to where the prop rod mounts and two holes where the prop rod rests when the hood is down. All you have to do is stick a medium size philipd down there and turn it, as you turn it, if u look at the little metal discs, they should spin.

There's little caps that look like you can unscrew them on the back of the headlight, but they just keep turning, that's what you'll use. Found it out the hard way, I f'd up the direction of my drivers side headlight thinking that was a screw I had to remove to open the headlights, lol.
I just pulled up to my garage with the door shut, picked out a center line on the door and lined my headlight up with that, seems fine now.
