Search "DRL" in the Pontiac Firebird forum down below. 54 threads of juicy DRL info.

DRL = Daytime Running Lamps. Not sure what you mean by "bring out the fog lights" either.

Bring them out as in how to get them out?
It sucks getting them out on my Camaro. I always have to take out my headlight and take out a few of the bolts that hold the bumper/fender together. I couldn't imagine it being any easier on a T/A.

Are you just trying to remove them completely or are you trying to mount them more forward from where they are now?

You don't have to go through all that trouble, there are plastic "doors" under the car that once you unscrew the bolts holding them, will give you direct access to the fog lights. On a T/A it is a bit more of a pain but you could also undo the plastic bumper from underneath to get to those too.

This is exactly what I did when I swapped out my stockers for my first set of black corners.

You can get those from ws6store, a sponsor here. Or any of the places already mentioned.

Your factory fogs won't come any more forward than they already are.

Here's a pic of my drls I got from ws6store, I then tinted and cleared them.

I would think in order to get to the DRL's, you would take them from the back like the Camaro corner lights. I could be wrong but thats how it seems to me though. And I would imagine the same thing for the Fog's also.

I just took my DRLs out the other day. Just take off the wheel and inner fender well and they're held in by two bolts. As for the fogs, it may be best to take the whole bumper off which is pretty easy. 12 bolts on the bottom, 2 lateral ones on each side holding it to the quarters. 1 on either side (have to go through the DRL holes from the front), if I'm thinking right theres 1 on either side that you get to from the fender well and 1 on either side on top right next to the headlights. From there just pop it off and you have full access to the fog bracket bolts.

The fog brackets are reachable from underneath once you pop out the three rivets holding the underside in place. You can then put a 10-12" long 'prop' in there to keep it down while you work.

It's not tough, just takes some patience.

Yeah. After like 2 times of doing it I saw the access door thing on the underside. I always seem to have a sucky time trying to get the lights out. I'm planning on mounting my coils on that frame rail there in February. That access door is perfect to get to it.
