    There is headlight adjuster screws, usually a torx screw, possibly a regular phillips head screw that can adjust side to side and up and down.

    Kinda like this (note: picture is NOT of a Lancer headlight)

    i had that same problem... the problem was that the o-ring that is in the hid lamp was too thick and it wasnt fitting right.. can you actually SEE that its correctly installed (the 3 pins inside the socket)?

    i did it by hand at the beginning and thats why that happened... i took the o-rings off and problem solved...

    btw YES i know that the headlamp is not sealed and humity MAY fog the housing... it hasnt happened to me in 7 months so im not worried.. whenever it happens ill buy a thinner o-ring ;)
