It's pointing lower than the right one and out further to the left. Could it be defective as well?

actually, i know it was the bulbs b/c when i used the bulbs from my previous kit i never had an aiming issue. the previous bulbs had perfect focus and direction. as far as your fogs go, i recently replaced my fogs with some yellow bulbs and i noticed that my passenger side fog light aimed up. when the stock halogen bulbs were in there i never had the problem but once i switched to the yellow bulbs, i notice it all the time when its on..

it could be that maybe there is a problem. try swapping the bulbs from passenger to drivers and vice versa and see if that helps.

Thanks, I will try swapping the bulbs. How do I remove the bulbs? Do I need to twist first, and then pull out or just pull straight out?

Cool, I'll try that. No, I didn't install them myself. I took it into a shop to have them install it, but if it's easy I might as well do it myself.

Ok, I actually didn't need to swap the bulbs. I adjusted the left fog light by turning a screw behind the housing and now the aim and beam pattern are perfect. Thanks for your help, BlitzIS250 and XenonDepot. Sorry for sidetracking your thread.
