Question Fog Light Aim?

Does anyone know how to adjust the aim of the foglights?

Since my car has been lowered, I notice the Foglights arent covering as much ground as before and I would like to aim them up just a bit to make up for the difference, but I dont know how.

Thanks!

I don't know if there is a way to adjust the foglights....? I think the only way to do it would to somehow shim them up, not real sure though. There are two headlight adjustment screws, but I don't think that adusts the fogs at all.

there are two holes on the central side of each foglight. the top one is access to the mounting tab, and the lower one grants access to the adjustment screw (it's black, and you kind of have to look up and towards the light housing).

the screw will change the angle of the housing, but i don't have any data as to where it should aim. once i get my garage back, i might be able to get you some numbers.
