Default How to adjust AGX front struts?

They came on my car, but I don't have a clue about how to adjust them. Could someone help me out here?

there's a screw/nut type adjuster on the top of the strut tower.

Usually clockwise is tighter.

It either has a flathead adjustment, or a **** that's fixed/removable.

^^ what he said... on my fronts (KYB AGX 4way) it requires a small flathead screwdriver. Numbered/Colored 1-4, 1 being the softest and 4 being the most stiff on the 4way application.

I've got the coilovers all the way down right now, and I messed with the adjuster thing with a little flathead...and I think they got softer...damn it. I think there is 4 different colors on that plastic adjuster housing thing, and I tried to turn it to red, but I have a feeling the adjusters are shot.

I'll try to turn it clockwise and maybe it'll make my ride a little better.

Thats the same kind I have. The color part seems to not be so attached to the strut anymore, but hopefully I can get them to the "red" again.
