Aiming FOG Lights

trystar · 03-03-2009, 01:58 PM

I drive an '09 Si coupe. I noticed that my driver side fog light is aimed WAY above where it should be. It's aimed higher than my driving low beams.. Is there any way to adjust it to make it level at the proper height?

yes there is, you can take it back to honda and complain about that yourself and have them fix it.

or

you can take off the bumper and adjust it from the inside.

there should be an adjustment hole

NYDR27 · 03-03-2009, 02:44 PM

Anyone have a picture of these holes? I had trouble spotting it yesterday.

ehh, i took off my bumper to install my retros, could that have possibly altered the height/aim of the foglights?

is it that threaded bolt thing right there on the bottom left of the fogs?

there's an adjustment hole for the headlights, you're saying there's one for the FOG lights also?

Not sure about OEM fogs but when I installed my K2Motors fog light I drilled a hole below the housing for adjusting aim.

bump, anyone else know anything about adjusting OEM fogs?

If you had the fogs installed at the dealer they will have drilled holes in your bumper under where the foglight housings are. Stick a phillips in there and feel around for a phillips head screw... its a ***** but it can be done

If the dealer installed it I would ***** and have them do it like jethrooo said.

hmmm, i just find it easier if i did it myself. I have an '09 which comes from the factory with fogs already, i wonder if they drilled this hole... Would any of you guys have any pictures of what this hole looks like so that i can compare it to mines? Thanks in advance.

SiConvert, i hope you enjoy those headlights i sent you!

Yeah, I understand. I did them myself and it sucked... only reason I recommended it in the first place. I hate going to the dealer too.

After I put some G35 projectors in those headlights I am really going to enjoy them!

I'll send you some pics when I get it all done.
