Open the common diy thread on top of the gen tech help forum. Open the online manuals link. You can get a 94 shop manual as a pdf from those sites that will help you out a lot.

Default Headlight Adjustment

I know I kinda already asked this in another post of mine but the other post was for a different topic. I need to find out where the adjustment screw or whatever it is for the headlights are. If you can provide a picture that would be great

There are two adjustment screws (horizontal and vertical).

The horizontal is easy to see. Look at the driver's side headlight from the front of the car. Just above the plastic on the right hand side, there will be a philips head screw that you should easily be able to see when the hood is open.

The vertical is more towards the middle of the car on the headlight housing and is on the engine side of the headlight. The top of the screw will face the hood of the car.

Make sure you are looking at the KH version in the shop manual (US). The KE and KG are for non-us accords.
