adding fog lights

i want to add foglights to my 91 formula, i was wondering what the best route to take would be, either getting all of the stock lights and making it look stock, or just getting a set of generic lights

what do you guys think ?

fog lights?

I used pilot brand on my 91' T/A and I also gutted the nose little to add day runners as well!...but if you can figure out how to add some relays then your set to go with out running down your battery!

its hard to say?....you might need a GM manual for your specific make and model to be sure!...if there are wires there, you could follow them to see if there is waiting relay to add fog lights?...but if there is no relay you can get relays added to the existing wiring from your parking lights and add an original switch from a junked 91' t/a with foglights already intergrated and follow the harness off of that car?...if you can find a junked 91-92 bird?

stock 91 - 92 fog lights.

mine was prewired also.

just needs to bolt in the front light assemblies, plug the connectors up.

then on the inside, i put in the fuse for them in the panel, added the relay which the connector was under the drivers side dash, and then i bought a used 3 switch panel for a clean install and just plug the switch into the connector after untapping it.

i have the crappy off the shelf ones from pep boys, and you can barely tell the difference. they were like $24.99, and work great.

unless you know EXACTLY what to look for, you wouldn't know they aren't stock.

when you say add the relay... do you mean add the wires going from the fuse block to the fog lights or the wires goign from the switch to the fuse block ?

and what color wires are on the plug that the wires connect to go run to the fog lights from under the dash, i saw a connector that was loose that had a green and grey wires in it ? would that be the one ?

add the relay means, buy the relay and plug it in the connector under the drivers side dash near the fuse block.

your car seems to be just like mine, where as its completely wired up and ready to go, just plus in the switch, fog lights, relay, and fuse and it sohuld work like mine did.

6 dollar relay i think it was, its smaller than the fan relays.
