Fog Light Adjustment

Before anything, I've searched up and down and I can't seem to find the answer. I just converted my GSR Evo IX into HID's with fogs. It seems that the fogs are aimed way to low. I don't know if that's how they should be but I want to know how they should be aiming. For example, how far up from the ground should they be when the car is 25' away from a wall.

i don't think they are adjustable....fogs aren't supposed to aim out from your car very far...that's what the headlights are for

The fogs for me if you pull up to a wall shine about an inch or so below where I can see the outer edge of light from the HID's. Hopefully you can make sense of what I said.

there is a 10mm bolt above the the foglight and below (i think). both adjust up and down.
in the pic below it's above the big black arrow and i believe under the small black arrow.

enjoy.

i don't know but i'm glad you can. w/ jdm headlights the cut-off is high on the left and low on the right. street signs on the right are almost imposible to see at night. i aimed my fogs higher to compensate.
