How do i change the headlight on a 1999 Ford Mondeo?

this may sound crazy but have done it for years and has always worked for me. depends if you have top or side posts. If you have top posts then put a little lithium grease on in it and then put a penny on wach terminal. For whatever reason this has worled for me. I had an old man tell me this once when he came into my shop so I tried it and damn if it didnt work. Side post I would just put plenty of lithium grease on it. Dont think a penny would stay on sideways.

Can anyone give me tips on how to adjust my car's headlight?
