Can be done even with the housing on. There are semi-circular openings around the bezel opening to access adjustment screws.

I left the housings off so I can clean them so I think I might as well align the lights first, then put the housings back on. Screws will be a little easier to get to. The housings probably don't get washed very often.

I used the same led headlights as you, I got them here for $119 apiece:
https://www.larsenlights.com/larsen-...el-a0102-hi-lo
they work great.

As far as the fog light problem, I solved it with one of these plug and play resistors which I got here:

They are sold by the pair but you just need one, the resistor is a little big but it fits nicely behind the headlight bucket and it fixed the problem with the fog lights

How do those resisters interface ? Do they just plug in line behind the headlight connectors ?

Thanks for the great tip. Order placed and I will give the extra resistor to a friend here that is also interested in LED headlight upgrade.
