Are my fog lights aimed wrong or is this normal?

My fog lights on my 22 SR5 light up the trees way above the ground. Is that how they’re supposed to be? I always thought fog lights were meant to shine lower, closer to the road.

Could they be upside down, or am I just way off on how they work?

Maybe they were set up for cats instead of dogs. Try turning the truck off and back on, see if that does anything.

Make sure your skunk lights are calibrated too

That doesn’t look like a dog to me.

That’s a Stinky Kitty, I’ll have you know.

There’s an adjustment screw to aim them, but it’s a pain to reach. The stock fog lights aren’t great anyway.

I swapped mine for Morimoto XBs, and they work way better. They have a nice projector style. Diode Dynamics is another good option too.

Oh great, another person blinding everyone with their super bright fog lights. Might as well throw a light bar on top while you’re at it and go full Jeep mode.

Morimoto XBs and DD SS3s are actually SAE J583 compliant, so I don’t know what you’re complaining about.

Did you check if the lights are on a leash?

Did you make sure they were aimed correctly when they were installed?

I didn’t install them, but I’ll check out the adjustment screw.

That’s what I get for typing on my phone with sausage fingers.

Thanks for the laughs.

I love how you typed it wrong twice but got it right once in the middle. That’s some real commitment!

After that first reply, I seriously thought I had some special dog lights under my fog lights. I was like… what? I’ve had my Tacoma for seven years and four dogs, and I never knew these were a thing?!
