fogs not aimed properly

I pulled up to my closed garage and realized that the lights were not both the same height. How do I adjust them?

It's probably in the MANUAL, in my '96 manual it explains how to do it. I'm trying to be nice cause little pussies around here ***** that I go off on people. How do you expect me not to when questions like this are asked? If it's not in the manual tough luck. There should be a screw next to it that you adjust. The fogs are different so I'm not sure.

There is a screw at the back of the fog light housing. Turn it clockwise to lower the beam. It is easier to remove the two front screws and take the fog light housing out to get at the adjusting screw.

What I would do would be to remove the splash shield from underneath the bumpercover and use a ratchet with an extension to get at the adjustment bolt. This way, you won't have to remove the foglamp from it's brackets everytime you need to tweak it. Also, if one of the lamps is at the correct height, park the car close to a wall (on level ground) and perform the adjustment of the other lamp during the daytime, so that the hotspot of the beam pattern is more defined.
