2012 Yaris fog lights issue

[ucsmfu]

Hey guys,

i bought a set of fog lights on ebay, had them installed today, everything works well, however noticed that the fog lights were aimed really high. Points almost same height as the headlights.

Just wondering if there's anyway to fix it ? I couldn't find a adjustable knob in the back of the housing.

thanks :)

Some of the ebay ones are truly junk. If they don't have an adjustment knob they are not adjustable.

There probably is an adjustment screw that uses a screw driver for adjustment. Have a link?

This is the one I bought

Just wondering if anyone knows if the 2010-2011 Prius fogs are the same size as the 2012 Yaris ?

Also, it looks like the OEM yaris fogs are made by Valeo ?

Anyone know where I can purchase them for cheap ?

Thanks :)

Hmm Look for this beige/grey kinda knob on it... if they're on your car, they should be underneath the foglights, just pop a screwdriver in them and turn until they're pointed downwards on the streets.

If you can't find the adjustable knob... then I suggest you either keep them off and only put them on in deep mist, or else other people will be angry at you :)

The 2012 ones are the same (other than the bumper trim) as the 06-11 Yaris and a slew of other Toyotas. You can often find used ones reasonably on ebay. For aftermarket ones, the ones that Micro Image sells are good and are adjustable.

the adjustment screw should ideally be accessible with a long screwdriver under the engine splashguard, somewhere below the fog. the owner's manual might have instructions for the exact location.
