while my car was at the paint shop, fixing some electrical problem caused when they put the rear part of the car together, a fuse melted so i was without lights in the tail and in the interior, while in the shop, my HID where stolen so i had to drive my car in the dark back home only with the fogs i installed in this week, so i did not had the chance of testing them in the night and i noticed they are like a luxury only, cuz i cant see nothing with them in the dark!

Is there a way to adjust the light beam to go higher?

PD: The paint shop is going to pay for my HID, i wanted to put 3,000k instead of the 8,000k i had, so now i don't need to buy a new pair of bulbs :hehe: :roll:

if its a OEM or OEM style, then yes, you can adjust them. there are adjustment screws on the back of the housing. much like the head light adjustments.

wait if you have to adjust them from the rear, how will you know if they are level and aimed properly, cause you'd have to take the bumper off wouldn't ya? or are they accessable from the front by removing the cover?

The fogs i have for my EG8 you take the face plate off and you can see the adjusting screw right in front of you. Hope that helps. (they arnt OEM but they are the replicas)

got my car back just about an hour ago, and removed the cover, and didn't see any screw, is it possible to post a picture of where it is?
