S430 and C320
Low beams and high beams adjusting with the same screw on headlight
I am trying to align my headlight beams on my 2001 S430 and when I get the low beam where it needs to be, the high beam is shining at the floor. When the high beam is where it needs to be, the low beam is shooting up in the air. Is the a way to adjust the beams from left to right as well? I only need a minor adjustment there and it is not a drastic of an issue as the low beam/high beam problem. They are non-Xenon lights. Please advise. Thanks!

I bit the bullet and bought a wrecked housing for cheap and confirmed - as below you can see there is a full housing for the high beams but yes there is an infrared glass shield in front..
Guess I-m just stuck with HIDs for high beams..
Thanks for all that responded.
Cheers and happy holidays!
