There is a Phillips or torx screw at the top and side of the headlight assembly. Turn the top screw in to raise the headlight. The side screw to go left or right.
Choose a location on level ground in front of a blank wall or a garage door. Position the vehicle so it's perpendicular to the wall and about 25 feet back. Have the fuel tank half full and the tires aired to the proper PSI.
Set up a double-crossbar target on the wall, using black electrical tape. Measure the distance from the center of one headlamp to the center of the other. Use this as the span between uprights of the crossbars. Now measure the distance from the ground to the horizontal midline of the headlight. Let this be the height of the horizontal bar.
With the vehicle 25 feet from the wall and the headlights on low beam and aimed at the crossbars, adjust the vertical and horizontal alignment screws on each headlight until each beam is centered exactly. You may need to raise the hood to get to the adjustment screws, if they are inside.
This method will give you an approximate adjustment. To have your headlights aligned precisely, take your car to an auto-service center that has the proper equipment or a dealer.

How will the hours of daylight for the North Pole change if the earths axis was always pointed toward the sun South Pole Equator your latitude?
If one end the Earth's axis always pointed toward the sun, then one pole would ALWAYS be in daylight, and the other pole would NEVER see daylight. Which is which would depend on which end of the axis pointed toward the sun. The Earth's "poles" are the ends of its axis of rotation. It's not possible for either end of the axis to point toward the equator or toward my latitude.
