Welcome to the forum!
With my foglights I went to a brick wall, parked about 30 feet back side by side with my dad's VW Jetta and lined them up. This method is good only for large adjustments. If you want them adjusted perfectly get the tool

I used the screws on mine, and it broke the plastic housing. so now one is just bouncing around, but mainly looking at the ground, be careful when doing this, you can brake yours too.

Welcome to the site. I took mine to a shop and had it done. I cost me 40 bucks. It was necessary though after I had my lift installed I was pissing people off with my headlights when I would drive behind them.
