Default Headlight adjustment

Hello all!! Quite new to my 52' V40 d sport, and only driven her a few times when its dark, bit i have noticed the beam on the dipped headlights are very very low, only projecting to about 10 to 12 feet in front of the car!!

Have tried the electrical adjustment wheen on the dash but it at its highest already!!

I was wondering if there are manual adjuster on the headlights themsleves?? As the MOT is due end of the month and i doubt itll pass with the beams as they are now.

The full beam is better, but not perfect!

See my thread here for headlight details

you'll need an allen key to adjust them, it pokes through the holes in the chassis under the bonnet so you don't need to take the headlight out
