Default Front fog lamps

Just replaced bulbs with 80W rather than the standard 55W, no problems with wiring heating up and the lens are glass. The improvement in the light output is noticeable.

My question is, are they adjustable as I feel the beam spread of both is rather low. I realize fog lamps and meant to be low, but not as low as mine are.

Washer - shim them at the mounts is probably the only method. No adjustments on the housing itself.

You might want to reconsider that statement.

In a word ........... yes.
One adjustment screw and the reflector is located on two pivot points. At least they are on my three spares. Use a 6mm hex key to adjust.
