Anyone use these headlights?

http://astore.amazon.com/camaroz28com/images/B001FBMA7O

In the product description it says they are fog lights, are they or are they lowbeams ? Anyone use them on their car? Was there a change in the head/fog lights from '94 to '95...I bought the sylvania silver star bubls and was going to do the bulb replacement with my headlights, but if these would work, would be brighter, and are truly "plug and play" like it says, I may go with them...Just looking for some info.

Thanks

Update:
Found a couple variations of these bulbs

Anyone have experience with the xenon bulbs? I am not looking for anything super bright, but want to go better than my stockers....Also, anyone ever have a problem with legality? Don't know if a 6000k or 8500k as my low beams may be too bright for TX...

Thanks

Re: Anyone use these headlights?

The first one is a fog light -- it says it's an 880 right on it. Unfortunately, you need an 885 for a '93-97.

The second one just says it's a low beam, and doesn't specify the bulb type. It might be correct for a '98-02, which uses the 9006 bulb (which looks a lot like the one pictured), but a 93-97 requires the H4351 sealed beam light, which looks completely different.

Next time you're posting links to Amazon, link to the item page and not directly to the image. It might let us be more helpful.

Yep, that was the sticky that I was planning to use to swap the bulbs out because I am tired of replacing the whole lamp every time and i want something brighter...And the silver star 9006s that I bought were $50 at AutoZone, so I will definitely take those back and take a higher light output for less $$

Thanks for the help
