Get aftermarket fog lights. They are lighter and work better. All you have to do is screw them in the fibreglass.

guess some people dont realize its not that simple... i took my stock ones out to clean because they were real foggy, went to put them back in and cant get them straight, they keep drooping angeling downwards... and all it is, is a bolt that goes through a hole and fastend with a nut. i still dont get it either so sorry for the nonhelp i just posted.
thats because you put that little spacer piece in backwards. see that little squared piece right above the nut? if that is missing or installed wrong, the light fixture will just flop around loosely.

Theres a small wedge that goes between the bracket and the fog light housing. it fits over a small part on the backof that housing.The wedgemay be worn down a bit. Try filing a groove in it so it fits the housing better. it shouldnt droop.

i see now. they were perfect before i took them off, and i dont remember seeing a space like that, or any at that... i figured i was missing something becuase of the hole in the bumper, but then i was like wtf becuase the hole had like an elongated oval going sideways... guess ill be searching the garage today..

there's a good chance that it fell off and stayed in the bracketry when you removed it, and you never noticed it.

how much does a cheap set of like walmart foglights cost, or are they junk?
$20, & work just as well as any of the others. Mount up perfectly. I like mine.
