Ok, the tab is on the *lower outer* adjuster.  So is the lower adjuster
for vertical or horizontal adjustment?

I've got two different responses now, one indicates the *inner* (which
is upper) adjuster is for vertical adjustment, while this response would
seem to indicate the lower (outer) knob with tab is for vertical
adjustment.

I ask because I played with both last nite and saw no difference either
vertical or horizontal.  Am I supposed to be doing anything other than
just turning a knob?

The tab is used to aim the lights lower when the car is fully loaded, 
and can be hooked up to an actuator motor, which allows you to do this

from inside the car.
