Headlight Aiming.....

does anyone know how to adjust the left right aim of the headlight on a 06 sedan???. I found the screw that adjusts up and down but I need left and right and I cannot find it anywhere, not even in the FSM.

Thanks

Left and right is NOT adjustable. (That's why you can't find it.)

Damn, that sucks. That means there must be something wrong with my passenger housing because it is pointing off to the side of the road a little and when I am behind other cars or trucks, it's obvious when looking at the reflection that the drivers side is brighter than the passenger but the are both at the same height when I pull up to a wall, just when I back away, you can see the passenger beam start to go to the right (off road)

Check the bulbs, it may be out of the mount.

Yes, that PDF shows how you aim up and down. It won't go left or right.

Thanks for the help guys, I have come to the conclusion that it's either the actual bulb (unlikely) or the housing itself (most likely) has some kind of defect. I'm pretty sure that the bulb itself is seated properly in the housing because the beam pattern is identical to the drivers side. Correct me if im wrong but if the bulb is not seated properly, the pattern will not be focused correctly. There has got to be some kind of left/right adjustment somewhere on the back of the housing even though they say there is not, I'm just not looking forward to taking the whole grill and bumper off to see what the problem could be. I always hate seeing other peoples cars with ****-eyed headlights and now im one of them, my car has a lazy eye. lol
