Hey guys, the high beam on my 156 needs adjustment pretty badly. I've adjusted the low beamusing the adjusters at the back of the assembly, and my mechanic has said they're ok. However, the high beams are illuminating the tops of trees along the road. Is there a separate adjustment for the high beam? If so, how?!

There is actually a little dial just next to steering wheel (next to tripmeter control) that allows you to adjust overall headlight height. But I assume you will have to go back and readjust your ordinary beam if you have adjusted that separately.
