Post What tool needed to adjust headlight?

I need to adjust my headlight but can't find any tool to adjust into the two little holes. Do I need a special tool?

Thanks

I takes a metric allen wrench. I don't remembe the right size but somewhere around 5mm.

The long part of the wrench goes in the holes and barely reaches the adjustments.

The alignment holes don't always line up straight - actually they rarely do - so buy a long 5mm "ball head" allen/hex wrench. It will save you time & aggravation. I bought mine at Sears.

This is what a ball end hex wrench looks like:
