everything is adjustable. Sometimes it just takes a little creative thinking.

I would first just loosen the headlight bolts and see how much it can be moved. If its not enough, you can either dremel out holes or add washers for more adjustment. Just use your imagination. lol

There are four adjusting bolts, 2 on the top, one towards the middle of the car, and one on the outside of the headlight. Loosen those four bolts, move the headlight to where you want it, and then re-tighten.
