98 TA Fog lights in a 97???
I have a 97 Trans Am, and it needs new fog lamps. Does anyone know if the 98-02 lamps (the lens and reflector only) are the same as the 93-97? Will they mount in the 93-97 brackets (which I know are different).
Finding decent used 93-97 fog lamps is difficult, but the newer ones are easier to find, so I wondered if I could mount them in the older brackets.
Thanks!

Thanks for the info. I'll look at mine tonight when I get home and compare. Does the lamp housing mount on the bracket with 2 plastic rivets on the bottom of the housing (pivot point) and a top spring loaded adjuster screw for alignment?

Excellent, thanks once again. And....the lamp housing has the same exact identification on the back as yours, so I think they are the same, just the brackets are different.
