09 Aveo 5 Fog Lamp Part Confusion !!! (Must Read)

[WOLFMAN AK907]

I'm still waiting on mine. GMparts distributor hasn't even confirmed my order yet, and I placed it thursday. I'm gonna call them. EDIT: I just spoke with the guy "Mark", he was really nice and helpful. He said they had to special order them FedEx from GM. They already have 1 fog light there, the other 3 parts should come in today and will be shppied out this afternoon if he gets them early enough. Very good customer service, much better than vvme.com I can say that much. At least it's not like DLspeed where he has to order something and it takes months, just for him to tell you he cant get the parts and he cant refund you but he'll give you a credit...like anyone wants to buy antything from you now? lol

The Fog lamps I mentioned above GM Part numbers 96659792, 96650793 arrived today. You definately need the trim rings or they will look like Doggie Do-Do. here's a picture of the Fog Lamos that match my headlight reflector design.

I'm going to Post a DYI on the Installation of strobe Lights into the fog Light Housings so you'll have both fog Lamps and Strobe light capability out of the same Housing without tearing it up at all.

HID's showed up today. Here's what the H3 Fog lights look like. I think I can make them work.

Looks like we may need to modify the housing entry to accomidat it , or the Black rubber gasket mat cover the entry and leave off the factory twist cap.

I think we should pull the blue and black outta the grommet(they dont need to be there) and push the grommet flush with the back of the bulb and see if we can wiggle those 2 plugs through the factory back locking piece. It'll work one way or another.

Can you post a picture of the bulb with the wires pointed towards the camera and the front of the bulb facing away fron the camera lense? amybe a close up?
