one of my headlights is aimed badly, how do you adjust the beam on the projectors? is there an adjustment screw or something? it is for the low beam on the passenger side

Is this the JDM coupe projectors? It should be some screws regardless. Just find a wall with some flat pavement in front of it and then park ~9ft away and adj. them.

yes, jdm coupe projectors, i was not able to locate the adjustment screw, do you know where it is at on the back of the headlight housing?

there are 8mm bolts iirc on the back, find a wall, park 20 ft away, aim your headlights so that they are just below 0 degrees, general rule of thumb is 2 degrees down angle, so maybe 2 inches below level with the headlights. and righty tighty =down i believe. the low beam and high beam have separate adjustments
