Default 2006 Ex-L 2.4 Headlights

I have an 8k HID kit its bright but the lights seem to project straight into the ground. I did have front end work done due to an accident, is there a way to aim the headlights? Both Lamp units were replaced. Any help would be great, Thanks.

looks like the low beam but i could be wrong..u might need a flashlight to see thru that hole to find the adjuster..using a phillips screw to turn it wit the headlights on and u will be able to see it move up and down...

u might be able to find a downloadable manual online..i work at honda so i have access to the honda site

Sorry to be such a pain, should I be able to get at it without taking off the fender? Go through the wheel well maybe?

Thanks alot for your help and the helpful pics/diagrams. All this time I can't beleve how easy it was, there's actually up/down markings on the radiator supports referring to the headlamps. And for anyone else who wants to adjust there lights it's actually a 10mm socket that you need not a Phillips head, that kinds threw me off and the bolt is almost directly above the HIGH beam. One more piece of advice, when you notice the light isn't moving up or down anymore stop or you will break the mechanism I have to adjust my one light with my hand now because of this. Otherwise it increases visibility by far over the factory setting the lights come with. Thanks again to ekb16 for your help.

Thanks very much to the both of you for putting up information that's going to be of genuine use to people as these cars get older.

It's amazing how difficult it is to do anything with the headlights on the G7 and G7A, because of the space saving efforts on the nose of the car.

I'm still astonished you have to remove the fender liners and the cold air intake (on the 6-6 models) to get to anything.
