CA Hye new to the Site, and have a question

Hey guys, So i'm new to the site, I became a member so that i can help my girlfriend with her "snowwhite Rx-8" I'm sure the white has a specific name, but i dont know what it is (that's what she named her car snow white, because of the color). So here is my question, she says that her headlight beam seems a little low. Now i know that most xenon/hid headlights have a little adjustment bolt/nut/screw/etc, i asked mazda to see if they were low, and they were, so they adjusted them a little, but still not good enough for my 5'2 girlfriend and they said that they are not allowed to tell/show me where or how to do that because it's "illegal". I was just wondering if there is a thread or something that shows/explains to me how to adjustd the headlights. I'm am quite the grease monkey(I own an m3 and do tons of work to it), but if i dont have to take the bumper off that would be ideal. Any help or suggestions would be appreacited by myself, and my tiny girlfriend. Thanks.
-Shawn

looks likes someone gave you the right link, just keep in mind that the driver's side light is intentionally lower then the right side. (so as to not blind incoming drivers)
where abouts in California?

Just follow the 05rex8's thread link. It's pretty simple. Just get a nice wall to drive up to.
