Default Headlight Adjustment 96 Civic

This is my first post to this website. I bought my first Honda about 2 weeks ago. It's a 96 Civic EX Coupe. I'm trying to adjust the headlights vertically on it. I've searched and haven't found any info on this. I know for horizontal adjustment there is a **** on the inner part of the headlight. I've heard of a **** for the vertical adjustment, but all I can find is a 10 mm bolt that I can't get to.

Any help with this?

Thanks

Has anyone ever adjusted their lights on a car like mine?

Thank You. I completely forgot about the manual. I looked in Haynes but it sucks. I was actually trying to adjust the bolt using a wrench from the back! I was about to take apart the whole front end I was getting so frustrated.

Thanks Again.

I adjusted my driver's side light last week. There is a 10(?) mm bolt right on the back of the housing, and you can use a regular wrench and adjust it from the side. A ratcheting wrench is easier if you have one, but no big deal.
