Re-aim you fog lights!

After I installed my HID foglights, I was quite disappointed in the output. Then from driving my roomie's gf's Mazda6 along with my rental 06 Max SE, whose fog light beam was only a few inches below the low beam's against a wall and very useful, I was even more mad. So tonight against a wall, I re-aimed the fog lights to be as high as possible, and it helped! Although it is still like 6 inches below the low beam, I can actually see the fog light's output now.

I ordered some 3000K H3 HID foglights. They should be coming soon. We'll see how the output is.

i have the exact problem right now. my fogs are aimed in the wrong direction so the output is horrible.

Projector fogs like the Altima SE-R would be absolutely cool.

I love my 6000K HID fogs.
Got pics of the 3000K? I might do that sometime.

Can you go into more detail on how to re-aim your fogs?

Remove a 10mm bolt, a push tab, and a Phlips screw below the fog light, pull back on slash guard, then you'll see a 10mm **** on the back of fog light housing, adjust as needed.
