Hey guys I just took my car to get aligned and they said that the front coilovers were put in slightly wrong. Here is a picture, they said the camber bolts need to be going horizontal somehow to be able to adjust the front camber left to right, I have k sport coilovers and this is a 2012 si. I opened my hood and took the pictures head on so that is the angle they sit at. Any input is appreciated, thank you.

the camber adjustment up top look like they're going back and forth instead of side to side. If you loosened the bolts it would allow the strut to move forward and backward. To adjust the camber, the plate needs to be like this pic of a d2 coilover below. The slots are running left and right. That allows the top mount to move inward and outward to adjust the camber. Best pic I could find..... same view as you are showing (just different car)
