yea but its so friggin confusing. I followed the instruction here - https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-t...correct-2.html and even bought a 10" screwdriver and got nowhere. I even found both A and B screws, turned them both and nothing happened. I even tried with headlights on. Anyway, the car is at dealership as we speak for lexus to adjust for me..
when I had mine done by the dealership they said they had to turn the screw a million times to get the level to change by a hair. I don't think its as direct as you think. Bottom line is thats it not super simple. Adjusting the headlight on my civic was simple, the GS not so much

damn thats crazy, I8.This issue really points back to lexus - why are they being so courteous at our expense? We need to see safely at night too. In fact, the headlight that I am having to adjust was completely replaced 1 month ago, and they purposedly installed it pointed downward. I see BMWs and Audis with both lights pointed perfectly straight and here we are having to worry about oncoming drivers? Screw that.

Took out my bulb and when I put it back the aim of my headlight was WAAAYYYY low. And what's weird is the bubbles for both headlights are the same, now I wonder if I can trust that bubble at all. Anyway, I need to get that long screw driver and see if I can adjust it myself.

I see what U guy mean not moving much. I crank that bitc like crazy and it moved by a hair. LOL
Anyway, last night I take a look at my bulb and saw that it wasn't in correctly. The notch was wrong. I had to unscrew the tiny screw to remove the clip. Anyway, put everything back correctly and now it aim a little high. I gonna readjust it tonight. Can't see the light during the day.
The bubbles, they r junk.
