Question z28 fog lamps question.

Last summer the frames to my fog lamps decided to rust and fall off for some reason...

I have no frame to them and the lense has rust stains on them. Will this replace the frame and lights?

I mean the discription is kinda vage.

or would I be better off just to get some kinda ricer lamps from autozone no scratch that, thats not an option.

Judging by the price, and the fact that it says it's the assembly, I would guess it's the full assembly. I recall new lights costing $200 for the pair, which lines up with what he's charging.

Just a little bit of advice about your Fog Lamps. My trim frames also rusted away and the best solution is remove the frames and clean the lens and thats it. The frames are just useless metal trim pieces and the lamps need not be replaced. Also they look better and are still original, and you save $200.

That'll probably work until the epoxy fatigues and the lenses fall off.

I was lucky enough to nab a used set of rings. Used fog light parts are hard to find.

There sre no lenses to fall off it a sealed unit with the halogen bulbs replaced at the rear. The metal pieces are trim only and support nothing. This applies ONLY to the original equipment Fog Lamps. Not aftermarket ones.
