i plan on adjusting my left light by looking at the projections and leveling it with the right headlight, and then afterwards turn two 360's on each screw.
Yes, it is safe. How else would you know how much to adjust up or down otherwise?

Just don't go poking at the HID ballasts though.

By the way, in a nutshell this is how you adjust you the height of the headlights:

Essentially, 25 feet away from a wall, flat level ground.
The top cutoff of each beam should be 1-2 inches lower/closer to the ground than from the ground to the centre of the headlight.
