"fog" light/headlight alignment

[changedman]

hey, i had some work done a while ago on the front bumper and the driving lights are totally misaligned. does anyknow know how to adjust the beam higher or lower on the fog light? I figured out the head light, need to know how to align fog lights- is there a knob like on the headlights?

any help is appreciated.
thx

You ever find out how to adjust the fog lights? I just put some PIAA yellow bulbs in them and want them to light up more of the road, but the bolts I thought would adjust them couldn't be budged!

frustrating ...

You'll need to take the entire foglight out of the bumper to re-adjust it... a b**** and a half, I know. Here's a How To for removing the fog-light. It's entitled "how to change the fog light bulb", but keep reading ... it'll tell you how to take the entire foglight out.

After you've taken the foglight, you basically loosen the 2 nuts on the mount at the bottom and align them at your leisure. It helps if you have a leveling tool. I basically reaimed them so that the beam is horizontal to the road, as opposed to pointing down.

Good luck!

I had the same problem. You'll need an allen wrench and a ratchet ... or 2 allen wrenches of the same size ... either way, put a tool on each nut and pull/push them in opposite directions. I managed to loosen one nut doing this ... and with a rubber mallet, it wasn't too difficult to move it around.

Thanks, man. I'll give that a shot tomorrow.
