Fog light beam pattern should be low and wide. If you're traveling faster than 20MPH you should be over-running the light pattern.

AW, All-Weather halogen bulbs, slight amber tint, will yeild the best illumination for human vision in actual foggy conditions.

I like to aim the right fog low and to the right to illuminate side streets and particularly the bar-ditch side of the road for any animals that might be thinking about hopping aboard.

I like to aim the right one far enough to the right so as to not offend drivers coming my way.

Been working well for me for the last 40 years or so.
