    I have an 07 Prius and the left headlamp is out of adjustment. The light shines high. I cant find a way to adjust the lights. Is there a way to fix it?

    If it is the halogen type there is an adjustment wheel behind each light-very hard to reach-scraped my knuckles a few times-it is like a bottle cap, and you have to get it to go clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the height. Do a search and you will find definitive instructions.

    The bottle cap like toothed disk also adjusts the HID lights.
    Loosen for up, tighten for down.

    I assume that means counter-clockwise for up, clockwise for down?

    Yes, if you were standing in the engine compartment and facing the front of the car.
