Fog Lights Installed

I just installed a new set of fog lights on a 91 Camaro Z28. Found a good set of aftermarket ones at WalMart ( of all places ). Sorry for the house behind the car, it's my neighbor, they used doors for skirting. lol

Re: Fog Lights Installed

Are those the Blazer ones?
That's what I used, got them at AutoZone I think.

Question, how did you mount them? Did they go directly into the bumper? yours look more level than mine. Curious how you installed them, any close up pics of the bracket would be great!

Re: Fog Lights Installed

Looks great, now not to nitpick but it seems the parking/turn signal light covers are always last on the list to be replaced. With all that shine (head lights/fog lights) the parking lights seem out of place .There not cheep but a set of these would do it nicely. = http://www.1aauto.com/1A/Head Lights/Chevy/Camaro/1ALPP00008/271776
Check out the video at the bottom of the page or I can show you mine.

Re: Fog Lights Installed

I mounted them to the steel bumper under the air ducting for the radiator. It was really easy.

He is the lights that I used http://optronicsinc.com/driving2-new.html. The part number is QH-16CTW

Re: Fog Lights Installed

I have aftermarket fogs as well with factory brackets

I own a set of GM fogs, but they were too dull to put on, and then I got the clear turn signals to finish dressing up the front

Re: Fog Lights Installed

yes, my car was an RS, and I got a Z28 grille, and painted it gloss black using Enamel paint.

I got the fogs off of a car in a salvage yard, but that way I got them with the brackets. the funny thing is, I got them off of a 90 IROC, that would have come from the factory with the real deal.
