    So i installed the oem fog lights i bought off CL today.
    And ran into this problem of the fog lights not sitting flush... and have this gap...

    I have 13 Reg that did not come with pre-wiring so i had deal with running all the wires, replay, fuse, switch - and it worked out fine (tested it working), yet i have this problem...

    Looks just like mine. My guess is it may help to keep from melting the bezel.
