it's the tab on top of the headlights, mine is white. It takes a 8mm cup if you turn it to the outside it lowers it, towards the inside it makes it go higher.

It needs to be done on a flat surface, either your garage or drive way and from about 20'. You can see use blue tape or masking tape to mark your starting point and then start making your adjustments.

Drive around to make sure they are not too low and that you are still able to light up the road ahead of you. This adjustment just takes a few minutes to do.

Hope this helps.,
