2 Dumb Headlight Questions

Ok, this will most likely be the dumbest post I ever put up, but here goes...
1) I am used to aligning GM headlights, but how do I adjust the headlight alignment on my Thunderbird? I see 3 black pieces on each headlight, but am unsure of how to adjust them, and do not want to destroy anything finding out on my own.
2) I am also thinking about changing to brighter lights after my alignment, depending on how much the alignment helps my visibility (the headlights are pointing almost directly at the ground). Would you guys recommend Silverstars or Cyber Whites, and how do they compare? I'm not going to spend double the money on the Silverstars if they are the same as Cyber Whites.
Thanx!

When you open the hood on a '95 you will see two studs coming out of the headlight assembly facing the engine. One is at the top outside next to the directional lamp and the other one is at the bottom inside between the headlight and and parking light. I don't know what size socket fits the ends of them but by screwing them in or out you adjust the light. My '97 is the same way so hopefully your '94 is set up the same way too.

As I figured, yet another tool to buy... Oh, and I decided to go with the Sylvania Cool Blues, just for the effect of the headlights matching the car.
