Front turn signal gap

My front turn signals are not aligned properly with the holes in the bumper. Is there a way to adjust this so they line up correctly?
Thanks,
A.J.

Did they fit at one time?
Have you tried swapping them? Move the left to the right side, and vise versa? (I didn't think you could mount them on the wrong side, but maybe you can.)

Maybe a shot further back will help too.

Re: Front turn signal gap

Yup, looks like you've got them swapped. Should fit perfectly once you get them switched around lol

Re: Front turn signal gap

The lense & the arm down the center are marked L/RH.So you'ld be able to tell by looking.I dont think the arm would align with the screw hole if they were switched.
