help with aiming headlights

[zoomzoom33]

I need help with aiming my headlights, and I know there was a write up on which bolt/screw to turn in order to adjust the level, but can't seem to find it.
Also i recently added hids to my fogs and found that the beams dont match where it hits the ground. The right head light and fog are both higher then the left. Is there a way to adjust the fogs as well? Thanks for the help in advance.

The right side is supposed to be higher. This prevents you from blinding drivings in front of you, and sending them to their spiraling and firey death.

since you have a ms3, it IS possible to add a leveling switch to your dashboard and hook them up to the unused leveling motors on your headlights! yes they are there on all ms3s!

I found the write up on mazda3forum, but the links to the pics dont work anymore. Theres no mention anywhere about adjusting fogs, does anyone know if this can be done? I also notice that both my fogs have condensation inside and I already just replaced the left side fog 2 mths ago, now both are fogging up. Anyone else have this issue.

im not sure if you can adjust fogs.. As for headlights, set it at "0" and find a light coloured flat wall, park 25-50feet away on flat surface and adjust it they you want them to be. There is white colored screw beside xenon headlight assembly. Using a screw driver turn it for a desired height you want it to be. Remember "0" is the highest lights will go and "3" is the lowest.
I set mine so that "0" can be used as high beams, "1" for highways, "2" for streets and "3" for heavy weight in the trunk.
Hope this helps!

Is there a way to do it on a regular 3 with Halogen bulbs? (I switched to HIDs)

same thing applies with Halogen assembly. Drive up to the wall and use screw driver to twist the white screw on each side.

TO EVERYONE: MAKE SURE LIGHTS DONT POINT UP, AS XENONS ARE VERY BRIGHT AND WILL BLIND AN UPCOMING DRIVER. I really hate how people put HIDs in trucks and civics in non-projector housing:flaming

I guess I'll try to find it... Thanks!

might be a dumb question, but which direction of rotation of the white screw causes the beam to aim higher / lower?

clockwise is going up i believe, not hard to figure out if you aim while looking at the wall:)
