If you remove the lamp, on the inside of the housing is a nut that needs to be loosened. Adjust the light to where you want it, then re-tighten the nut.

there is a special hollowed out/notched socket made by snap-on tools made for it. What it does is allow the wire to go to the center of the socket so you can loosen/tighten the nut for adjustment. by the way, that socket is like 40 or 50 bucks. I made my own out of an old socket and a dremel cutting tool..

My palm has always worked very well. Just tap it down or up to where you want it.
