    US hella ellipsoid adjustment

    This.
    I searched around but didnt find much.
    how do i adjust the light?
    As you can see the right side is fine but the driver side just shoots down.
    Are there adjusters inside? Excuse my noobness with the headlights i've never really messed around with them.

    there are adjusting screws on the back side of the ellipsoid (w/ a white plastic knob), which you use to adjust. Sometimes the white plastic knob breaks....so it may look like just a metal screw hanging out.

        You can adjust them while in the car... If the adjusters function correctly it's pretty easy.
