R56 Headlight aiming?

Headlight aiming?
I have an '09 MC with halogen lights (non HID) and they seem to be pointed more down than I'd like. Is there a way to adjust the alignment of the lights?
I've changed the bulbs in the headlights to Sylvania Silverstar Ultra bulbs, which was an improvement over the dim standard bulbs... but the lights on low beams aren't point as far ahead of the car as I'd like.
Any suggestions?
thanks-Dave

There is a small phillips adjuster for up and down. look for a white plastic part towards the back side of the headlight housing. Find a flat surface with a wall, park the car about three car lengths back and throw a towel over the headlight you are not adjusting so you can see how much you have changed it.
Go conservative on the changes. The more you raise the low beams you also raise the high beam and it quickly becomes useless. it's a compromise if you want both to work.
