After unscrewing the black plastic cover you will see a metal arm that can move up and down. I had UK lights fitted as such the arm was in a position for the uk
roads. I had to go through a check in Holland
and they confirmed the headlights wouldn't pass with current position. So I adjusted the lever. If I remember correctly, the lever for the right headlight (as you sit the in car) was moved up and the left headlight lever was moved down. The dutch authority checked the lights again with a special piece of apparatus to measure the beam . They confirmed the lights now passed for continental roads. I asked them if it was now configured the same as the European
headlights and surprisingly he said no. He told me that the lever had adjusted the beam from UKroad configuration to a neutral configuration were the beam is straight . So its not entirely continental. Normal continental headlights have a beam specific for the continental roads, they are not straight. However the neutral configuration is permitted in Holland.
This is why it was accepted and
I did not have to replace the headlights with continental ones.

To adjust the headlights on a Jaguar X, first ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and the tires are properly inflated. Open the hood and locate the headlight adjustment screws, typically found on the back of the headlight assembly. Use a flathead screwdriver or appropriate tool to turn the screws, adjusting the beam height as needed—clockwise usually raises the beam, while counterclockwise lowers it. Finally, test the headlights to ensure they are correctly aligned.
I took mine to Jiffy Lube and they did just fine.

To adjust the headlights on a Jaguar X-Type, start by parking the vehicle on a level surface about 25 feet from a wall. Measure the height of the headlight beams and mark this height on the wall. Then, locate the adjustment screws usually found on the back of the headlight assembly; turn them to raise or lower the beam until it aligns with the marked height. Finally, test the headlights to ensure they illuminate the road effectively without blinding other drivers.
