My wife has a 2006 Kia Optima and it took me a long time to figure this out. I called the dealer, to avoid bringing it in, and they were useless so I just took some time and stared at it and figured it out.

At the back of the headlamp, there is a small bolt (forgot the size, but it's a metric hex) to adjust the vertical alignment. The bolt is just to the inside of the upper (non-high-beam) light; at the back. Wratchet clearance is awkward but do-able.

I did not have to adjust the lateral alignment, but I am sure that bolt is further to the outside. Just in from the nose of the hood, on the top of the headlights, are some stampings to indicate where to look for the adjustments. You should see a set of arrows indicating vertical and another to show lateral.

Good luck!
