Default fog light adjustment

On my 98 I could adjust the fog lights with a star screwdriver. I traded my 98 in on a 04. I tried to adjust the fog lights. I tried using a 10,15, and 20 star screwdriver but I can't find the adjustment screw feeling around with the screwdriver. Do the 04's still have an adjustment on them?

torx #15 should work. The screws are some times offset from the hole...

A dedicated Torx #15 will work better becuase the size of the whole will not take one of those enterchangeable screw drivers. It is good to have anyway becuase it is used thoughout the car....

Yes it does and it's inside the little square hole ( right side of the right Fog light and left side of the Left Fog light). You need a flashlight to see the screw. Turn at least 4 full turn then go form there. Hope this help.

It's there -- you need to use a flashlight to see it if it's misaligned with the hole.

I tried feeling around with the screwdriver in both holes. But thought it was probably the round one and felt around in it the most. Didn't think of the flashlight. I'll use it and the #15 screwdriver. Thanks
