Default headlight adjustment

I tried searching but didnt have much luck...My drivers headlight sticks up higher than my passengers. Is there a way to adjust how high it goes up? I cant notice it when I drive but my dad said he noticed it when I was following him. I have an 02 t/a

There are two adjustment screws for each bulb.
One above and one to the side.
The one above is for up/down adjustment.
The one to the side is for left/right adjustment.
They are visible/accessible through the front of the shroud.
The shroud has a notch above and to the side of each bulb.
The screw has a Torx head.
If I remember correctly, the size is T15.

you can either replace it by going underneath the car and doing it through the little opening in the plastic underneath or you can do it the easy way which is to remove your headlight. Once you remove your headlight you can easily reach your foglights from the top

Using the access door under the car is much easier.

If you remove the headlight, you'll have to recheck aim when you reinstall it.
