cant find the horizontal adjustment screw for headlight hatchback..

for the life of me i cant seem to find the vertical adjustment screw for 2007 hatchback headlight to aim it left and right. does it have one..the screw to adjust it up and down is right there but how do we adjust sideways???

i meant horizontal aiming..going left and right..

I've never had need to adjust the lights so I'm not sure about horizontal either. IIRC, this adjustment can be done, but the headlight needs to be removed from the car.

I'm wondering if this is it shown in this pic I just took. This is looking at the passenger side light from across the engine bay.

In the diagram below, A is the vertical adjustment and B is the horizontal. The horizontal adjustment is part of the parking light bulb mount.

no screw

i was playing with it on my headlights last night...it pulls out like it were a bulb

marcus, id just accept that your reflector headlights w/ HID's in them arent going to be perfectly straight

cool good to know.. so we pull then turn to adjust left and right? actually the cutoff was ok little spread around it but i still got the 2 spots shining on the wall when i was adjusting.. that the reason i went with bixenon cos those came with shields on them..so looking at the headlight youll see top part of the headlight brighter than the half bottom..so far im happy..if not ican do projector but i think yaris projectors uses h1...
