Fog light help!

I just installed the fog light mod but I notice there aiming way to high like on top of my house roof high.. I have them pointing all the way down and I'm using Polarg yellow bulbs. Has anyone had this issue? I used this fog kit, http://www.k2motor.com/lf-acd034oem.html.

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks guys!!

Just a thought, but are they upside down?

Wow I didn't think of that one. I just checked and it's the right way. There is some writing on the glass and it says top.

It's good they have that one the glass. There must be some adjustment screws on it somewhere.

I just got off the phone with one of the tech guys where I bought the kit from and he said there's no adjustment screw... errr. I asked him if HID's would fix the problem and he said it would make it worse.lol.

It would make it worse, but probably less noticeable since the blue would blend with your lows!

I don't see how much more "low" we could have aimed them! I think yours ended up more buried in the bumper than mine did.

Yeah I was thinking that too. I'll have to take a look at yours again.

Yeah, buried being a good thing that keeps them from pointing upward! What about the glare shield...where is that covering...the top of the bulb, or the bottom?

Maybe a design flaw?

I don't think it has a glare shield, I think that's the big problem. oh well looks like I'll just have to live with it...

I don't remember whether or not yours does...i know for a FACT mine does though...on the top portion. That would explain the issue. Trust me...order a 6K HID for them...get the same as your low beams or go with the ddmtuning raptor kit since i know you're on a budget...$39 bucks...can't be beat!

since all the lights will exactly match it won't annoy enough to do anything about it.
