Every car's headlights aim by turning a screw. It is easy but it is also time consuming to do it properly (which I suggest everyone do once, not just crank it around). Generally, dealers do not do it properly, and the factory usually leaves something to be desired too. Generally "official" dealer/factory adjustments are too low and too far to the shoulder to build in margin of error - just like the speedo reads too high and the suspension is tuned for understeer.

Why are there so many separate threads on aiming headlights?
