Default How to MANUALLY adjust 2011+ LED headlights

So for those of you that bought the 2011 headlights and fitted them to your pre 2011 vehicle... How did you adjust the headlights output since they're no longer auto adjusting themselves anymore?
I need to lower mine and turn the passenger side projector to the left a little bit

There are 2 adjustment screws on the back of each headlight, one for vertical adjustment (easy to access), one for horizontal (not so easy to access, in behind the fender). Same adjustment as the pre-2011 HID headlights, and similar to the halogen headlights (halogens have vertical adjustment only).
