Headlamp adjustment 2007 Allegro Open Road

I discovered my head lamps are miss adjusted when driving it at night for the first time. From what I can see, the only way the correct the alignment is to unscrew the assemblies, reposition them to aim properly, then drill new holes for proper mounting alignment. Anyone know anything different?

Are you sure you don't have adjustment cams on the back of them? Maybe you have to remove a cover or something.

Update

There are no possible adjustments to the headlamps without re-positioning the entire headlamp assy, which involves re-drilling the mounting holes in the aluminum brackets attached to the
front cap. There is an adjustment screw at the top of the headlamp, but this this is the (only) attachment point for the headlamp. Seems like a really poor design to me. I'm looking for a way to attach auxiliary lamps that offer better lighting and adjustment.

I find that hard to believe. You should have two adjustments, but at a minimum the up/down adjustment. Are you sure that one screw does not move them? Is there anyway you can post close up pictures?

Yeah? When I pulled the assy the headlamp was attached by one bolt on top. There were no adjustment anywhere. Recently, I came across another model like mine and stopped at the rv service shop to check it out. Again, no adjustments. I'll try to get a picture and post it.

Update, the headlamp I was looking at had been repaired with a metal bracket blocking the adjustment screw.
