Highbeam adjustment?

Hey guys ,
is there a way to adjust the highbeam lights ? I installed a set of yellow highbeam bulbs and they are a little high , I would like to bring them down some . Any help would be great

Behind the head assembly, there's a crank adjuster... right next to bulb insert. clockwise to up the beam, counter to lower it.

The adjustment screw is for the low beams , dont see one for the high beams . Im not happy with the yellows, just not what I had in my Scion , so will be putting the white high beam bulbs back in

Hmm.. okay.
Well, it must be fixed then. Not sure how else to adjust them unless to tweak the headlight housing itself.

Yep it appears to be , I looked for another adjuster but no luck . Not a big deal changing the bulbs back to the white bulbs .
Thanks for the info on the adjuster though

I tried.

Yeah.. guess we just don't get enough haze/fog around these parts to warrant yellow bulbs. Too bad there's no way to switch between the two colors on the fly.

Mostly for the damn snow for 6 months of the year here . with the yellows it much easier to see thru the snow fall at night.
