Default Aiming headlights

Hey I just installed TYC projectors in my 6th gen accord, and one is a little higher than the other one, and its really annoying and I can't figure out how to fix it. so can anyone help me, I looked in the manual and I don't understand it, I think the things it was talking about were on the stock headlights and not the TYC's...
Thanks in advance

there are two bronze colored adjustment screws for each headlight. One screw adjusts the horizontal angle and the other adjusts the vertical angle. Look behind the headlight and look for it. Can't miss it.

those 2 screws you were talking about. Is it the 2 inside the projector that holds the bulb or is it the 2 screws behind the actual headlight?

they are on the TYC projector housing, they are not part of your honda car.

there is a pair for your low beams and for your high beams.

i havent put mine on yet. I hear that its the most decent aftermarket ones. If you put HID's in em, it'll be a bit better, not as better as a retrofit though.
