Headlight aiming

I recently had to replace my headlights thanks to thieves. The new lights are great but the aim sucks. They only light up about 5 feet in front of me and they are cross-eyed so to speak. I did a search and the links to instructions are all dead. I looked at the back of the housing and nothing looked obvious. Thanks for the help.

There is a white **** right behind the housings. You turn left and right to adjust up and down. Not sure how to aim left and right though.

If they are OE headlights, then you won't be able to adjust the left and right aiming as they are pre-set I believe from Nissan themselves.
