In this embodiment, the legs 11 are arranged parallel to the adjustment bracket 2, the shortest distances between the plurality of legs 11 and the adjustment bracket 2 are equal, a total of three legs 11 are arranged on the outer wall of the front fog lamp 1 along the circumferential direction, and the angles formed between the three legs 11 and the center of the front fog lamp 1 are equal. In order to save costs, the front fog lamp 1 is a halogen lamp.

[0027] The adjustment bracket 2 is arranged outside the front fog lamp 1 and sleeved on the lamp head of the front fog lamp 1. The upper part of the adjustment bracket 2 is triangular and the lower part is rectangular. The adjustment bracket 2 is provided with a first mounting hole 21, a second mounting hole 22 and a third mounting hole 23. The first mounting hole 21 is located at the center of the adjustment bracket 2. The first mounting hole 21 matches the front fog lamp 1. The radius of the first mounting hole 21 is greater than the radius of the front fog lamp 1. The second mounting holes 22 are evenly arranged around the first mounting hole 21. The second mounting holes 22 match the support legs 11. Correspondingly, in this example, there are three support legs 11 and three second mounting holes 22.
