if you look at the back of the headlight housing....you'll see adjustment screws. There are two on each headlight....one to adjust side-to-side and the other one is for up-and-down.

you'll obviously want to adjust the up-and-down one. You're lucky that you have a gen 1.5....those housings are way better for HIDs than the gen1's are. Thats why I did a retrofit....the gen1 headlights are complete garbage if you wanna put HIDs in them.

Correct, but 8mm socket, not a screwdriver.
