Headlights

How do I re aim my headlights? I hit a pothole and now one seems to be lower than the other. I pull it into the garage and when i'm level I look at the wall and one beam is lower than the other. Is there a way to fix that? I took it to the dealer and they must be retarded or something because they made it worse. I don’t like the idea of playing around with something that sucks more voltage than my TV’s in my house.

Good instructions, but instead of a phillips screwdriver, use the 10mm socket, it works much much easier. Also if you check the black plastic piece that covers the radiator right in front of the headlight, you'll see arrows with the letters U(up) and D(Down) printed on it with arrows showing the direction to turn the bolt. For some reason though tey are backwards, and U is really down while D is really up; Acura screwed up.
