It's hidden under a plastic cover that pops off for side to side

This is a photograph of the drivers side from behind
The "adjuster" on the left is the left/right
The "adjuster" on the right behind those wires is up/down

Happy "Aiming"!

This is good. I felt like my beams were favoring the right side. Is there any particular method to aiming them side to side?

A dark dark 2 lane no traffic road, that's what I used to set the cutoff for opposing traffic lane.

They should favor the right side if you drive on the right side. This is for signs if I remember correctly.

Good to know. Thanks!

After setting the correct height, we move the cutoff for both headlights until they touched the center line, then dialed it back about a foot. You can see the difference, your lane is lit, opposing traffic isn't
Amazing how there's no glare to opposing traffic.

take better pics of the projector, we can't tell if it's the correct kit if the projector is still in the bubble wrap.
