Default Fog Lamp alignment

I've searched the forum and found nothing.
I just replaced the H3 bulbs in the fog light housings and am now perplexed by the misaligned positioning of the beam. How does one align these lights? Its not clear to me.
TIA.
Guy.

interesting... 27 hits and no responses.
Anyhow I figured it out: The silly plastic fittings on the Bosch lamps were both stripped and the front plastic piece was pushing through the eyelet. A quick trip to the hardware store and purchasing bronze washers and nuts fixed the problem. What's more the Sylvania bulbs are significantly brighter than the originals, and most importantly, the fogs for the first time ever are properly aligned for my preferred driving characteristics.
