Headlights are cross-eyed
I hope the title got someone to look. The passenger side headlight is way off. It aims
down and to the left so much that at about 15-20 feet away it crosses over the drivers
side light. I checked to see if the bulb was not in correctly, but it was. Is there a way
to adjust this? Is it possible that the bulb itself is defective? Any ideas?
Thanks
Clayton

There are adjuster screws behind the headlight shroud. Remove the cap and you will need a female torx socket. The other is far in the back twards the fender. One is for L/R and the other is U/D.

Bulb Change, Yes
Yes, this did happen after a bulb change, but it seems to be in correctly. Maybe I should remove it and then reinstall it. If that doesn't work, then get a new bulb.

I had the same problem...and as was hinted above, the sockets were not in correctly. I really had to apply some muscle to get the low beam socket to seat and lock correctly (I installed aftermarket bulbs.)
Adjusting the headlights is a royal pain.
