What's that above the fog light?

I noticed that there is a hole? on the inner top of the fog lamp housing. What is that for? Just a screw hole or ? Just curious........

Sure do. I figure you need to crawl under the bumper to actually notice that thing, don't ya ?!
I won't allow it to bug me... Mario will probably tell us what it's all about so I don't need to risk staining my suit pants !

It's to allow you to adjust the driving light hight if you check you will see a cross headed plastic screw.

Thanks William! I saw it on the car at the Auto Show and wondered what I was.
