Default 05 XK8 with HID adjustable?

Hi guys,

I felt that my head lights are pointed a little too low...the road a few feet from the car is very bright but i can't see very far....are these HID adjustable? I know my auto leveling works because when I start the car, the headlights goes up...I am just wondering if there is anyway to adjust them.

Anyone??

YES - there's an adjuster on the leveling motor:

Usual caution applies with Jaguar plastic - be careful!

Adjustment is in the same area but is a plastic hex screw, I think 8mm. There is also a horizontal adjustment on the fender side with a little scale but you probably wouldn't need that.
