    fumbled, fiddled and fingered:
    to the right hand side of the headlight

    http://www.gwynfryn.co.uk//images/hl-adjust.jpg

    identified as "b" in the picture

    "c" is the manual up and down setting.
    "a" is the left/right setting

    the lever marked "b" is in the upright position in the pic and can be
    flipped to the centre and the bottom as load requires

    Yeah, I know that now. :) Bulb replaced Saturday last; if it blows
    before Christmas 2005, I'll know that there's a problem. :-/
