Head light adjustment

Hi all, I was hoping someone could help. Look for the headlight adjustment for the 2012 fit. I saw there were some previous posts about this (even with picture) but they must of changed the headlights since then as mine don't look the same!

Thanks for your help! I appreciate it

Get about 20 Ft from a wall/garage door, it takes a 10mm wrench, if I remember correctly CW is up for both sides. I ended up turning the adjusting nuts around 3/4 of a turn to raise the beam up where I wanted it

i don't think mine has a bolt there, cause i was looking for it too after i first got it hoping to raise it up a tad. I'll have to take a better look next time with a flood light

After adjusting the aiming on the lights, (and for anyone interested), amazon has the GE Nighthawk Platinum bulbs for $20/Pair. Price appears at checkout, normally shows $40.

Are you sure they're actually out of adjustment in your new car? Can't speak for the 2012 but it's pretty clear from my own experience and what I've read here that the low beams just suck (high beams are okay).
