Headlight Adjustment

I have a 2011 F-350 and I want to adjust the headlights. I looked in the manual and it said how to adjust with a screwdriver. Can anyone tell me what type of screwdriver I need to use? I can't see down in there well enough to tell.

Use a regular Philips. It will need to be fairly long, 6+ inches. You're going to use it to turn a small gear.

Shine a flashlight down to locate it. Should turn pretty easy ; don’t force it as it’s just plastic. Doesn’t take much of a turn to move them.

Adjusted my 2011 F350 headlights last year after driving it since 2010 - was a noticeable improvement (I aimed them down a bit more).

Stuck Marsauto led bulbs in them last fall; even better now.
