i don't know if its different in your model but are you talking about the white hexagon adjusting ****? If so when i get home i can tell you what mm you need for your socket wrench. if not then

 

It is different but I am familiar with what you are talking about. I had the same white plastic **** on my maxima that had halogens. Even the 2k2/k3 maximas had the same **** to adjust their hids. Its 8mm and I wish my G35 had the same adjustment.

 

I hope this can help in anyway.

 

This may help when you go to do the adjustments.

what year ESM is that from? i am just comparing what my 06 sedan ESM states.

 

*BUMP for pics please

 

for reeeaal...i took another gander under there today, saw the little wheel thingy and just gave up =/

 

Yea I took another look to but I dont have a screw its more like

 

grrrr rr

 

Let me try to help, when you look down the Inner rear side (inner as in closer to the engine) from under the hood, you should be able to find two white screws COUPLED together from each side of the headlight. With a + screwdriver, you should be able to sneak in there and turn the coupled screws.

However, please do note that little adjustments have huge adjustment on the actual aimming angle. Thus, try to start with small adjustments (like a quarter to half a turn).

FYI:

-If I am correct, turning anti-clockwise will RAISE the aimming angle.
-The attachment listed a few posts before is a great way to start with, it should help you find the two white screws...
-In some cases, dealers are actually "INSTRUCTED" to carry a service campaign of adding screw caps to the two white coupled screws -- in an attempt to prevent user from playing around with the aimming angle

I was bored so I took some pictures...

I have a couple questions though... which **** is for the height adjustment, and do you have to remove the wheel/fender liner to access it?

Thanks!

 

hmMm thats it!!?

 

The 06 esm says the wheel, the bottom of the pics you magnified is the height adjustment. Clockwise for higher and counter for lower. I used everything I could get my hands on to turn it but it would not budge. The only thing I did not do is attempt to adjust while they are on but I do not see how it would lock the wheel if the lights were turned off.

 

Have you tried using a phillips screwdriver?

 

yep. used a thin metal pic as well. i even resorted to trying a coat hanger with no luck. im going to ask the service to do it on the next free car wash and if they wont do it then ask what to use.
