Default Head light adjustment

I went to get my inspection sticker today. The dude said i need to adjust my drive side head light. I dont know what to adjust. I need to raise it a little the beam is point too low. I see 2 screws on each side put i dont know which way to turn them or which ones. Or do i mess with the bolts on top that hold the housing?

park your car in front of a garage and just start tweakin them different ways.......it's called figuring things out for yourself. It's not like you'll break anything. Two screws take the headlight off and the other ones adjust the beams.

You should have told him to **** off. I do every year they tell me what I need to do for my car. So I just go through a friends Grandparents shop.
