Fog Light is Off Centered
One of my fog lights is pointed downward more than the other. It must have happened recently because I never noticed it before. But I also noticed that it is spring loaded and I can move it back into its original place, but the spring doesnt hold it. Is there a tightening mechanism or does the spring need to be replaced. Whats the best and easiest way to fix it. thanks

I noticed after having mine apart for higher wattage bulbs, and to install the Vararam, that the fog units hang from metal straps and are held in place by one nut each. Many people have complained about the distance from the bulb to the front cover being uneven. Me too. In fact my right one was leaning against the cover and smoldering the plastic! Easy fix though, just push in gently to some degree and they will bend and lean enough in and away from the front cover.
Then you can adjust them with the #15 torx all you want with no problems.

thanks for the replies. I went ahead and readjusted my fog light.. took it for a test ride up to 7-11 came out and it was dead. I went through the fuse manuals and notice that the fog light fuse was very hot. I think I may have a short in one of the fogs now. I got the car home but it died in the driveway. If anyone knows what the problem could be and how to fix it, your help would be appreciated. thanks
