Hi peeps... I have a 96 celica gt...I want to put fog lights on them because it would look tight. Where do I get fog lights for it? And can I install it myself??

I got myself a pair of KC's I love. They're from the 80's, but my dad bought them for his VW off road squareback, but he never got around to using them. He gave them to me, and I'm just itchin for the weather to clear so I can go out and throw them on. DON'T GET ROUND FOGLIGHTS!!!!
One of my friends bought a set of some round ones, and with the stock celica bumper they look like crud. Get square ones, and I'd recomend clear. I think KC still sells something similiar like these ones. I'll get you a part numer tomorrow if you want.

[tranxendz]

Hey yeah sure bro send me the part number....Thanks man for your help..I want fog lights because I need a better view on things...lol and to make it look tight..square?? okay cool

[tranxendz]

hey do you know how to install em? do i need to get it professionally installed?

[tranxendz]

where do i get those round ones?

AutoZone has nice looking fog lights. They are an easy install as I see it. Nothing that major to do.

a local wal-mart even sells fog lights. i think you can get a set ranging from 20-60 bucks depending on who made them and the style and that stuff. As for installing them, I've done it quite a few times...it's not hard at all. I always just ran them by themselves. I grounded them in the engine bay, ran the power from the battery, and then i ran the wire inside where i installed a toggle switch to operate them. I guess the most difficulty was mounting the lights because you didn't want them to look stupid, and then getting through the firewall which really depends on the car your putting them on. If you go that way then you get the fun of choosing any form of toggle switch you want to put in the car. I installed 4 switches found at radio shack...I ran some neon lights off a couple of them and fog lights off one of them. I put them in the little compartment underneath the radio like right behind the shift boot. Very nice, can't see them, but they are there. just my 2 cents tho

[FallenHero]

Yes, many local places will sell them, But PIAA makes the best.

how did you guys mount the fog lights?

[FallenHero]

OOOOk, go out to your car and look where the fog lights are supposed to go. There are already holes to install the lams into. You see, many celicas came with stock fog lights.

[skydrol]

so, do you have any recomendations of which fog light would have the bracket to match the holes that are already there from factory?

[FallenHero]

Well.... I'm looking into getting 998 turbojector fog's. Most have a black metal or plastic hanger with two or three holes in it. If the holes don't line up,I'd just drill it. Once I get a definite price and get mine, I'll post up. PIAA has a application guide on there web page. I don't know if that is to match the holes or not, but you get the picture.
