A lil different fog light question

I searched for a thread on aftermarket foglights but all i found was for camaros..

Id like to put a new set on my Trans Am (86) but found no threads showing any for a bird. anyway post up and if possible how much, where to get, and how hard to install and wire

thanks in advance

they will fit a z28 , most camaro guys here who run foglights usually get the iroc grille and install those fog lights. THye look jsut as good on camaros. There is little modification to getting them on your firebird/trans am. All you have to do is gut the new foglights . Take the lense, bulb wires. And gut the stock fog light and just place the new foglights guts and place it in the stock fog light housing. Think of it as a transplant. You can use the new foglights without taking them apart if you like but thats more modification. Might as well just use the old housing and throw the new guts in there. Thats what i did and im sure most other fellow tgo members did also . You wont be disapointed

Silly question here,
What way is up on the fog lights? I made a crude drawing of the fog lights here. What way is correct, the one on the left or the one on the right???

I had a friend who just swapped out to a larger bulb and it looked 100% better.
