Finally did this last night and wow, I can finally see 30-40 feet ahead of the car while driving instead of 20' or less.

I used a 8" #2 Phillips screw driver and it worked perfectly fine.

Did anyone else get this to work on their GS?

I tried it this weekend but the headlights were not adjusting. I didnt want to turn the screwdriver too hard because i didnt want to break anything

it worked on my 3GS just fine a few days ago...
not sure why it wouldnt work on yours, hopefully this is the reason why and there isnt anything wrong with your headlights but did you remember to have the car started while you were trying to adjust em??
