Default Grand Am fog lights in my SS grill

I went to my local junkyard and found a 98 Grand Am that had some nice factory GM fog lights in it; I pulled them out and the yard only charged $10 for them. I made a custom U bracket for them to mount to and had to cut back some of my SLP grill about 1/2 " in the openings so the lights fit good and can be adjusted. Finally extended my factory fog light wires and plugged them all up so it works with my factory switch in the car. As for the stock ones..I'm thinking of putting some HID's in for those dark nights on back roads to go along with my HID headlights.


I used yellow bulbs to give it a different look.

Actually, it was over two years ago:

Regardless, nice job I really like the hockey stripe... At one time I was going to have a similar one. It looks like the LT1 design which is what I was going to have modified for my car

interesting setup. I'd use the original openings for some custom brake cooling ducts.

yellow light is better for fog than white, it won't reflect off the fog as much.
