How to adjust Fog light?

i do lots of night driving and i noticed i can barely "see" my passenger side fog light beam.. i mean it is "on" but since i am left side of vehicle i can,t see the beam pattern at all. i wish if i could raise it bit higher to illuminate the road better.

i think i have to adjust something inside fogs.. can someone direct me here?

Thanks in advance.

there's a little screw behind the foglight assy. Just take out the light housings and turn it one way or another and see with way is up. I think it's controlled my either a 10mm or a phillips head

You do not have to take anything out. You will need a long (6"?) phillips-head screwdriver. It is difficult to see, and describe, but there is an adjustment screw on the back of the fog light that is accessible through a hole, underneath the front of the car. Tighten the screw to raise the light beam, loosen to lower the light beam.

Unless wyy183 has a magic screwdriver I didn't see any way of adjusting from underneath.
But it's so easy to just remove 1 screw and the plug and do it that way, that's what I did.

Fogs are now up to just below the low beam.

Ya its way easier to just take the foglight housing out to adjust the screw. Just like the other guy said its kinda hard to get to the screw if u dont have a special screw driver. But even if u did have one trust me its easier to just take it out.
