    Well, you shouldn't have done that without the correct tool. They make them out of brass too so they strip real easy if you try to use plyers or something. If you stripped it out, you are in trouble dude, sorry. The manufacturers do that to keep people away from adjusting headlights that don't know what their doing and end up blinding everyone on the road with low beams. Do not adjust your headlights yourself unless you at least try to learn to do it properly. Torx socket tools are used much more on imports. Here is an example of the proper tools: http://www.google.com/products/catal...ed=0CCkQ8wIwAA#
