so I just installed some LED Headlight bulbs on my 2015 Honda Civic.
I noticed the headlight bulbs are not aligned properly. Can anyone guide me (either visually or on here) how I can align the headlight bulbs? I looked in the owners manual and it mentioned to go to the dealer but I am wondering if I can do it myself?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
 
I don't know if these pics are from a civic, but they'll show you what to essentially look for.

It's a silver notched tooth "screw" if you can call it that. You turn it one direction with a large Phillips screwdriver and the bulb will go up. Turn the other direction and the bulb will lower.

Thanks so much for your reply.
So I went out to my car and open the hood. I took multiple pictures here. I believe I know what hole you are talking about. Can you possibly markup from these pictures to guide me? Thanks so much.

I cannot tell if it's in that hole from your pic. You should be able to see a screw just like shown above in my pics on the back of the headlight housing. It may not be down in that hole on the civic. I don't have one to verify. You can test it by putting a screwdriver into that slot. You'll know in 2 seconds if the screwdriver turns in either direction on that gear/teeth.
 
Thank you. i looked again and i think i found what i am looking for in that hole. it is turning. thanks so much! i'll update if i have any issues!
