yip theres a lever you push down.
take rear rubber cover the bulb housing (main beem/side light) and push it down.
if you do it with the lights on you can see the angle change ( have car pointing to wards a wall). :y

Gently, push down on the drivers side, up on the passenger side.

I wouldn't try it with the lights on if you have HID's. Those high voltage stickers are there for a good reason.

What year is the car & what type of lights do you have fitted? The lever only applies to HID & projector type lights .... and only if you have hands the size of a 6 y r old  :y :y  :y  :y
