okay, i installed my 99-00 foglights onto my bumper but when i looked at the lens, it said Top on the bottom and was upsidedown. could it be that i have the lights switched? i looked and compared both sides and saw that if i swapped both lights then the back of them would be upside down but the lens side would be right side up.

now should i just swap the two lights??

sorry, these fogs are ebay fogs for 99-00 civic.

okay, the covers fit perfectly over the lights, everything looked fine until i got up close and looked at the lens.

i remember reading a thread about a guy having the same problem but i cant find his thread anymore.

 

.....stupid fog lights......

 

the only way you can make them work i believe is if you unscrew the whole light housing that is connected to the bracket it came with, but i dont remember if the backing of the light is dead center where you can flip it and have no problems.

i feel if it doesnt affect the light output when turned on then it should be fine and not need to be flipped.

 

are the brakets the right side up? if its just the fog housing try flippin them over. if that doesnt work screw it u said they fit ok nyways.

 

lol, well i've tried switching the fog housing but then it sat too low and yes, all the brackets are correct. i used the fog light installation guide.

o and some guy had the same problem and he said when he turned them on, the fog lights pointed Up, instead of down to the ground.

i might just put them on my bumper but dont turn them on.

 

mine were the same way, but i dont it affecting the way my light shines. if urs shines too high then just adjust them and point them down more.

okay. thanks for the info. i'll try it.

 

You've got to remember, those are China-quality products there and they probably just put the lense on upside down @ the factory.
