I am gonna replace my firebird bumper with a Trans am one...

i have been looking for a set of fog lights FOREVER!!! people just Didn't do whatEVER they promissed. anyways, i was wondering if i can just make one myself. but without seeing one i don't know the size or anything like that, all i know is i need a metal plate and cute it or weld it to a " L " shape...

anybody can help here???

P.S. i checked with Junk yards and other places, they ask too much and i don't need the lamps and they don't come with wiring harness... kinda PITA right now..

let me know if you can...

THANKS

 

If you're going through the whole trouble of installing the foglights, I suggest you go ahead and buy a set of Piaa's or other aftermarket foglight. The stock foglights suck bigtime, they are only 27watt bulbs. Not much useful light coming from them.

 

I would suggest NOT using PIAA's. If you ask some of the HIGH END automotivists (<---Probably not a word, but...) that are heavy into lighting mod's, they will tell you that PIAA isn't all it's cracked up to be, especially for the price. What I would do, if it were me, is put a set of these Pilot driving lights in there. They are the exact size of the stock T/A fog lights, and MUCH MUCH brighter. They are very tough - I have them on my four wheeler - if they can handle that (getting hit by rocks, doused in water constantly) I would bet good money that they will be alright on a car. They have a very thick GLASS lens, not plastic like the stock, and they use a 55w Hyperwhite H3 bulb. You could come up with a way to mount them yourself, believe me, I have installed lights on many different applications and they turn out looking just as good/better than stock. They only costed me about $35 at Wal-Mart. Wiring wouldn't be too diificult either. I will be more than glad to help you more on it, should you decide to go that route. If I can ever get my buddy with a T/A to buy them, then I will make a guide for it, but until then...

These are much better than stock, just as good quality as any HIGH dollar brand, (Metal Housings) and inexpensive.

P.S. Believe me when I say, these will be bright enough to drive by in many cases (city driving). The Pilot's I put in my Camaro (guide in sig) are that way, and these are even better. Like I said, I can ride through completely dark trails on an atv at 50+ mph without worry, so expect good quality lighting from them. The only downside there may be for you is the blue tinted lens.

 

Thank you guys for the replies...

I got the pilot cyberwhite fog lights already from wal-mart.

ALL I NEED are the brackets or how to mount them on the bumper... get the old brackets and modify it a little then put the fog lights on will be the best way to do...

thanks...

P.S>still looking for brackets
