is this okay? diode fog light question

installed the diode fog lights, but just wondering if this huge gap is normal?

 

Can it be rotated a little? It looks like if rotated counterclockwise a little that it might close up. I don't have them so someone who does could say for sure.

 

doesn’t really have space to move. I know a gap is expected, but idk if that big of a gap is normal.

 

Either it fits, or it doesn't. Looks like No or its positioned wrong. I don't think you should have a space like that. Maybe L/R are reversed?

 

you should be able to adjust the position of the light on the mount with the allen screws on each side of the mount

 

this is the passenger side.

 

Yeah, um don't know for sure what kind of gap is expected. I don't think I would like that noticable of gap, you probably the same and eye's draw too it every darn time!

 

Normal, there's some gap so you can adjust them down.

 

They look ‘off’. The lenses seem to be turned in way too much. Here are mine...

 

Mine have that gap. I thought it was normal

 

my stock trd or fog bezels don’t sit flush either.

 

All depends on who makes them... if they are a knock-off Amazon or eBay brand, well then you’ll get what you paid for. If they are a reputable brand like Baja Designs or Rigid, well then they should fit better than OEM.

That being said... where did you get these?

 

You could always kludge it with a foam weather gasket.

 

its fine. I have those lights. They are supposed to have a small gap for normal highway use, but depending on where the light pattern is they can be adjusted.

 

There should be some gap to allow adjustment. The screw holes on the plastic bracket mount to the pod body are slotted to allow forward/back adjustment of the light to allow more/less clearance from he bezel. If you have a gap all the way around and it bothers you, you can adjust them forward in the mount to reduce the gap.

 

I remember seeing on the instructions saying that there was a gap to be expected down there. I barely notice it anymore and you can’t really see it from most angles

 

they are Diode Dynamics. The company makes a very good product, as good if not better than BD.

 

okay, so that gap is normal. I just wasn’t expecting it to be like that, but seeing others, it makes me feel better

 

You can adjust their position on the brackets to minimize the gap. Make sure they are still aimed down at the proper angle (4" drop @ 25').
