So I just took a 1200 miles road trip with my LC and I think going over some of the bumpy roads caused my left (driver) side headlights to be misaligned (pointing too far up). I've had this happened before after hitting a large pothole and had the dealer re-calibrate the headlights. I was doing some research online and it looks like we can actually adjust the headlights ourselves and the owners manual have a 1 page instruction for the DIY (on page 323). Per the manual, there's 2 bolts I need to locate but I can only find one of them (see attach pics). I can easily locate bolt B as seen in the attached pic but I just can't find where bolt A is supposed to be. There is a tiny hole under the larger opening but there is nothing on the bottom that I can turn with a screwdriver. Has anyone done this before or have an idea where I can locate the second bolt?
Yeah first time it happened I hit a pothole, this time there were some uneven/harsh roads during my 1.2k miles road trip so I guess it got knocked out of alignment again. I think something is wrong with the headlights but dealer said everything looks good. Going to look into further if it happens again.

ok, i looked at the manual, your pic, and then my car
i believe the manual pic is bogus. in your photo (i.e., on the car) there's 2 holes there, one marked R/U L/D meaning (i think) it's the up down control, if you turn right (clockwise) the light go up, if you turn left the light goes down. the other hole is marked L R meaning it moves the light left and right. the other light has opposite L/U R/D and R L.
anyway, it's hard to see the adjustment phillips head in the R/U L/D one because it's just a dark hole as best i can tell. you'll need a thin phillips screwdriver.
hey this is all just guesswork so i could be wrong.
