Default Headlight Adjustments

I have a 01 Audi A4 1.8t and the headlights were pointed way too low... I was adjusting them yesterday and I believe I broke the adjustment screws. When I was aiming my right headlight horizontally, the light dropped about 4 feet right in front of the car.

Is there any way to re-connect the adjustment screws so I can get the beam off the ground?

Thanks,

Phil

well if its broken, i'd say you're SOL. if its just un-screwed too far, you might have to take them apart in order to fix them :/
