Switched my RS grille to Z28 Iroc style

Lovin the look much better. Was an easy swap, the fog lights bolted up, and the grill switched over with no problems whatsoever. I would love to actually get the OEM switch and harness though to make the fog lights function, any idea where I can get that at? Thanks

The fog light harness after about 1988 is integrated into the headlight harness. The wiring for the switch and probably the relay should be in the dash, might be wrapped in self adhesive foam tape to keep from rattling. Just unwrap and plug in the relay and switch. For the the wiring under the hood, you can either get the terminals and make up a new harness for just the fog lights and plug into C100, or you need to get the entire headlight harness from a later Camaro with fog lights and swap harnesses.

Looks nice! Did it bolt right up or did you need to drill new holes?

Re: Switched my RS grille to Z28 Iroc style

I love that bow-tie grill.

I bought one for my car a few years back.

The red bow-tie looks really good on your car but I have also seen members here paint it to match the car and that also looks good.

Your paint is a little dark though, and it might not show up very well.

Beautiful car you have there.

Re: Switched my RS grille to Z28 Iroc style

hey, thanks a lot for the comps guys!!!

tbh, I've been kinda getting bored of it lately, maybe that will fade when warm weather gets here and I can take it out and enjoy it
