Altering headlights for driving abroad.

Will you tell me how to alter the Bi-Xenon headlamps for driving abroad please.
I cannot use the normal light deflectors with these lights.
My local Ford agent does not know and Ford do not reply to emails.

It may well be that not adjustment at all is required because of the way they dip.

You can check that yourself right now (it's dark). Face the car against a wall or a garage door and see where the lights point when you dip them.
