Changing the fog lights on my LT1 car...

How hard is this? How long does it take, I noticed tonight I had one out. I heard its a real PITA and its better to just pay someone to do it. Suggestions? thoughts? experiences?

mods if you want this in general tech by all means move it, I've just heard its specific to the year of the vehicle thats why I posted in here.

Re: Changing the fog lights on my LT1 car...

Are you reffering to changing the bulbs for the fog lamps, or the whole assembly with the lenses?

Well I honestly dont know...never done it before, probably depends on pricing/hassel. I know my right one has been going in and out since I hit a tire on the freeway. I think I fubared it. I heard you've gotta pull the nose cone off etc, didn't know if that was true. So I honestly dont know what to do.

I was thinking for a second that TA's and camaros had the same fogs

And that guide does need to be posted more, it was a PITA for me until I saw that

Its not that hard to do but I went through bulbs so fast with my fogs that I just deleted them. Got tired of changing them.

As far as i know, you have to pull the front bumper cover off. It is not that hard. The lights are pretty expensive though. I didn't know that any of them had bulbs in them, but the sealed beams cost like $85 each (i think). I just bought some about a year ago.
