996 C4S headlight adjustment?

Hi all, my 996's passenger side headlight cutoff is a bit lower than driver side.
Just wondering if there is any chance to adjust it?if so, how?
Thank you

Just checked my car. Opened the B cover and there is no screw behind it,lol.
And I found my car has the auto leveling, so now I don't know what to do.

Problem solved. The reason I can't adjust it cuz my screw driver is too short to reach the adjuster,lol.
And yes, I have heard tons of good words about EU and will give it a try after X-max. Thanks for the advice.

Confused... If it is auto leveling why do you need to do a vertical adjustment?
