headlamp alignment adjustment screws S80 2000

I need to lower a passenger side headlight on my 2000 which is shooting really high. In looking for the vertical and horizontal adjustments, I see only some plastic-looking hex nuts that are a bit extruded or long. Are these the adjustments for headlamps ? The one that looks like it is the vertical adjustment is accessed through a hole about 4" above it in a horizontal metal panel connected to the core support.

If these are the headlight adjustments, they're the weirdest ones I've ever seen, but I really don't see anything else that looks even close ......

    You found them. But first check to see if the bulb is installed properly. If not centered in the reflector housing, the beam will angle up or down, depending on which way the bulb is pointing.
