Default How to adjust my 96-98 fogs?

I just got my password fogs for my 97. I have the square ones. One is aimed higher then the other and I tried adjusting both of them but there dosnt seem to be any movement. How many times should I turn the screwdriver before I see results?

You have to turn it quite a bit. Also, don't rely on the two screws being in the same position. The brackets may angle differently on your bumper.

Yes, but I bet you're turning it the wrong way. You're probably turning it from the top at the cross. You need to put the philip's head in the teeth of the metal wheel around the top and turn. You adjust it like stock headlights

no im putting the screw driver in the indentation of the white cyliner, where the little teeth are. I can see the top of the screw moving when I do it, and I tried it on both fogs both ways without results.

I really suggest you remove the housings and adjust them by turning the metal screw, from the top, with a phillips head, rather than with that gear thing.
Its more for final adjustment imo
