I REALLY need to aim my headlights but I am not sure how the rims come off. There is a small hole in the bottom of each rim when I would expect a screw, but no screws. Are my screws just missing, and I can pry the bottom of the rims out? Or is there some other mechanism activated by pushing something skinny into that hole?

Thanks,

Dan Wing

There should be a screw in there. Look from the other side of the hole.

Just pull at the screwless bottom of the rim and it comes off.
