Horizontal headlight adjustment?

I have searched the forum/internet and can't find anything!

Is there a horizontal headlight adjustor screw like there is for the vertical adjustment for the headlights (for the R56)? I can't seem to find it, and my driver's side is pretty crooked.
If so, where is it? Is it under some sort of cover, or...?

Thanks!!

Service manual shows it on the outside rear of the headlight assembly, parallel to the vertical adjustment which is on the inside rear of the light.

I'm not seeing anything. I looked in the service manual, and all it said was to contact the dealership.

Is it under a cover of some sort?

You are AWESOME! Thank you so much. My manual didn't look like that. My lights had a fancy cover over the horizontal adjuster; I guess they don't want people messing with it.

Thanks again!

Because that's the Bentley Repair manual, not the owners manual
