Re: Replacement fog lights

Are you talking about the actual fog light units or the bulbs?

Complete OEM assembly for the 92 z28. A bit pricy, but it's the original assemble for the car so I'd expect as much. They have the left and right side respectively.

Re: Replacement fog lights

The OEM lights are crzy expensive. But IMO they are the only ones that look proper for our Cars. All other aftermarket ones look like crap.

Hawks thirdgen also has them a bit cheaper.

Still pretty expensive, but a brand new OEM part for a 25-30 year old car is gonna cost you regardless.

Re: Replacement fog lights

Getting them used is also another issue as they were made out of glass with a rather cheap metal housing. So most are corroded or the glass is cracked. If you are trying to restore this car I would say spend the money for the OEM. They are worth it. I got them for my GTA and they are great.

Re: Replacement fog lights

I replaced mine with a set, I sized matched a new set for off-road use, disassembled and refit the off road ones into the factory bezels. They do work better, the yellowed glass cuts the fog. this is on a 1988 GTA. I Can't get pics right now since its in getting a paint job.

Do OEM ones come with wiring and bulbs or just housing and lens?
