I bought mine from Walmart for 20 bucks :)
Just bought rs bezels after that and replaced the bulbs with leds and done :)

jatt5ab1soorma 06-16-2012 09:17 PM

holy cow 20$...are they good though? lol... what bulbs u replace them with and is the glass protecting them good quality cuz i remember once i bought fogs for my old car and they were like 40$ and during summer time the glass cracked cuz it was so hot during summer lol....

jatt5ab1soorma 06-17-2012 12:51 AM

BUMP any links guys??

lscamaro 06-17-2012 01:30 AM

Well this glass is still perfectly fine and the summers here hit 118 -_-

The bulb was replaced with a cheap ebay led 5202 bulb. Not the most "respected" bulb but it works perfectly well and I have never had a problem with them. It's been a year and a half already.

Let me pull up the WalMart link real quick. But really any 4" fog will fit if you buy the RS fog light bezels

Edit: Quick question. What are you looking to get out of your fogs? With the stock halogens, you could tell the fogs gave off more light but I did it for purely cosmetic reasons. After I got my HID Retrofit, my fogs are just there for cosmetics because my hids drown them out. So if your doing it for better lighting, then you should look up bulbs you could replace the WalMart fog with. If doing it for cosmetics, any white led light will do.

i guess im on both sides, i do want em for looks and then also wouldnt mind having some light on the road as well lol....i heard chevy tahoe is a cheaper option on ebay...i dnt know the link or anything hence why im asking people...once i buy the fogs im gna get the oracle halos installed in them....thats why im wanting to buy a cheaper foglight set than pay 270ish for oracle ones

Yes, I completely understand. Some of the stuff some vendors sell are just way overpriced. The biggest example of this is the lighted bowtie. A camaro lighted rear bowtie sells for like 150-200 (don't really remember) and on ebay, companies sell Cruze lighted bowties (which are the exact same) for $15 dollars. Even if it happens to malfunction, you didn't waste much.

I thought it was the chevy blazer fogs? I don't really know. I just basically measured the RS fog bezel and found a fog size that would fit. I then just replaced the bulb. Since this is the same size as stock fogs, theoretically AAC or Flashtech fog halos should fit in the housing

Here's the link to what I bought:

I can't find the exact ones that I got but here is a similar one. Any of the round lights for the tahoe, avalanche, or yukon are the same as the camaro housing but are cheaper.

I also bought this harness.

Not sure. He might be able to slice them directly into your side markers or add a switch or something. Since I did mine myself I went with the harness.
