Adjusting headlights left/right

Hi all...

I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to adjust the headlights left/right? All the other headlight adjustment threads refer to adjusting up/down and even the headlight adjustment section in the service manual only talk about adjusting up/down. I have that part figured out, but I need to adjust my drivers headlight to the left a bit because there is a clear dark spot in the beam pattern on the left side that isn't present on the right. I know I read somewhere that this is done by design to minimize glare to opposing traffic, but that spot is really annoying me.

Anyways, I see the similar adjusting holes that look like they are for adjusting left/right, but if you look down the hole, it looks like the adjustment gear is covered by a plastic cap or something like that so my screwdriver can't get to it.

Has anyone else had any luck in adjusting left/right?
