NEED HELP! W212 P1 HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Not sure you can adjust the P1 lights left-right. How did you gain access to the bulb on the driver side?
Once you get the black plastic covers off, how do you actually remove the bulbs? I have P1 and have replacement bulbs but want to be sure I know the steps required before replacing the stock bulbs. Thanks!

You don't need to take off the wheel. Just turn the driver wheel all the way to the left then remove the wheel well. Once you removed the wheel well, it will be much easier to access the bulb than on the passenger side. It's not that hard.

Thanks. Do you need to completely remove the wheel well or can you gain access to the light by removing a couple of the screws from the wheel well and moving the portion close the the headlight assembly? Thanks!!
Lastly, turn the wheels to the left? Seems like maybe turning to the right would give you more access to the front of the wheel well, but maybe I am picturing it wrong in my head. Thanks!!!

HID install but beams are out of whack!
I just installed my HID kit and the lights are completely out of whack! the beams are crap, my right light is aimed high and way to the right, my left is pointing way down and to the left, the left actually looks like a flashlight beam, not an even spread, and the right is like spread out. anyone else have any issues on the beam or light adjustment after HID install, its so bad i am thinking of just going back to halogens

Actually I figured it out, i have a w212 with a projector for H7 bulbs so all i did was install a HId conversion kit in the same housing, the light beam is no where near what it was when i used the stock H7s.........
