Did you remove your headlight???? BTW, there are a LOT of threads here showing the removal of the projector. Search "foggy headlights" and "retrofit"

just get a 8mm and turn the screws on the back of the headlight. You'll see the projector slowly move outwards. On the inside bottom of the headlight, you'll see a bronze screw that you'll use a 8 or 10 mm wrench on to loosen the bottom.
Pretty easy..just take your time on it...

You're turning the headlight adjustment screw. That adjusts the angle the light shines. I don't have the old headlight I thought I did but I'm pretty sure you'll need to remove the whole light first in order to get the projector out. At worst, it'll make finding the correct screw a lot easier!
