Can you adjust H2 headlights?

Are the headlights on the H2 adjustable? I have been wanting to aim them down a little, but the other day I went out to try and I didn't see any adjustment screws. I didn't have much time to mess with them right then, and it's been raining since, so I haven't looked again.

Anyone ever done it? Am I missing something obvious? I'm used to all the old rigs with two screws. One for up/down, one for right/left.

Yes, headlights are adjustable.
The last post I read on this said something about removing the grill to do it. There's a mod you can do once the grill is out and drill some holes where the adjusting screws are.
Not supposed to be a big deal to pull the grill--flip the hood open, take out some fasteners and you're in there.
Good luck!

I was able to adjust my head lights without any removal of the grill all you need is the corret size allenwrench and a flat surface to aim at, or a good open area where you can play with the adjustment. The location is in the upper part of the headlight bucket it's small but if it help's open the hood and look at it from the back side. There will be what looks like a small box on the left and side head lightbucket that is your adjustment. Here's the down side the only thing you can adjust is the height, so you can make your beam higher or in your case lower to your likeing, if your head lights have just started to get higher you might want to see why, there may be another cause to that.

Thanks! Good to know. I hope to mess with them tonight.

As for the height, I never changed them after raising the front when I first got the truck. And I also just put HID lights in it, and they shine slightly higher than the OE ones. Since I put them in everyone in front of me at night pulls over and lets me pass. ;)

From experience pull up to a wall, about 10-15' back. Gives you a good idea of how much your actually moving the lights. If you can get another vehicle close to same headlight height that has proper aim, that will help you out alot also.

This is when I put my Starrs in-

Thanks guys. Got it last night. Much better now. There was actually a hole in the front to reach an allen head adjustment screw. I missed it on my first quick look because they both happened to have a large bug stuck in them.
