Default anyone know how to adjust the headlights on a 95 integra?

My left side headlight is shining downwards and it really bugs me that I can't see anything on the left hand side pass 10 feet. Does anyone know how to adjust/aim the lights higher? I looked at the Helm's manual but was just as confused when I first started to read as I was when I finished reading it. I can see that there are these "clock-like" dials near the headlights but they won't budge. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance...

There's two of those clock-like dials near each headlight. One controls up/down one controls left/right. park your car evenly facing a wall, and turn on your lights. Then take a philips head screwdriver and angle it into those dials, and play around with them until the light looks the way you want it Hope that helps, I'd be more descriptive but I just got back from an 8AM final exam and I'm going to bed.

It takes a long time to do adjust the dials, make sure you are doing them correctly. Many people have adjusted them the wrong direction(like 10 mins) to only realize they have to go the opposite direction.

What i found were they really werent dials, but small cranks that you can adjust with a philips head screw driver. Just remember theres an adjustment for both x and y axis. I was one who spent 10 min trying to turn the light up whilst actually turning the lamp to the left.

Good luck to you

I don't mean to sound harsh, but you would really benefit from learning to use the search function instead of asking about something that has been answered repeatedly numerous times, and has been documented in the HT archives.

Here's what I found on "adjusting headlights" in the "archived" topics" section:
