Highlander headlight adjustment

The screws may have a plastic cap on them and have a bolt head instead of a screw head.

Look down...you should see a grey colored bolt with a large serrated washer around it. But, IIRC, the adjustments are BACKWARDS from the markinks, ie. the markings indicate the direction the BOTTOM of the washer should go.

Are you talking abot the area almost inside the fenderwell to the far right or left of the individual light, at the back of the light? I did turn the one screw on each light I found there, no movement at all. Don't know what they are for.

But no plastic caps, screws, bolts or anything else up front! Just the black plastic that makes up the back of the light housing connecting at the "lip" to the clear lens up front. On the lip are the arrows and left/right, up/down, but no holes just solid plastic. I'm wondering if one actually has to remove the lens to find the screws. Probably will have to take it to a dealer, just to have the lights adjusted so I can see in front of the car, not a quarter mile away where the light now illuminates.

The adjustment screws are behind the headlight assembly. One or two complete turns of the screws will make very little difference in headlight aiming so you may have to make lots of turns.
