    Only thing I can think of is loosen, move the them into the position you like, hold them there while you tighten.

    Gotta say I don't like altezzas, tint them, that will look good though

    I actually like the altezzas for the smooth lense. which is going to play well with all the other visual modifications im doing. (monte mirrors, filled ripples in the bumpers, possibly shaved doors)

    You could also enlarge one of the holes to have it fit where you want it.
