1996 del Sol fog lights?
I've been looking all over the net for these, but I can't even find so much as a picture. My 1996 del Sol doesn't have the fog lights in the bumper, but on the lower part there are blockout plates which makes me think it was an option. A search online confirmed that it was indeed a dealer option, at least on the SiR models. Does anyone know where I could get a hold of these lights, or even look at a picture of them?
Thanks
Thanks

If you search, there's tons of info about them. Mostly saying "good luck finding them, since they were discontinued years ago."

That's the thing, most of these so called "references" Are just info about how hard the lights are to find.

here is a reference pic...the 96-97 front are even harder to find than the 93-95 front lower fogs...i've seen a few end up on ebay, but then they get too expensive for my blood...

it is plug and play..all you have to do is connect and extend the wiring pictured that comes with the kit..the plugs at the end of the wire shown goes to the back of the fog lights..

Not as PnP as maybe 96-00 Civic fogs, since it looks like you have to splice wires.

I think the 94 bumpers are fugly, and really like the clean look of the 96. Thanks for these pictures, there a great help and now I know what I am actually looking for. Where does the switch go, in that blockout place by the e-brake? Do you think I could go to a dealer and get these, or is it to old to be able to get them as replacement parts?

Re: (KolmeK)
I don't think it's possible, but i'm in the same boat... I've been looking everywhere for the smaller ones for my sol... but can't seem to find em anywhere... I found them once on ebay for 700$. I don't know about u, but i don't think its worth paying that much for some used up lights. Does anyone know how to get your hands on a pair?

Re: (Vtec_YzF)
Honestly, now that I have seen a picture of them, you could get some PIAA lights or something similar that would look almost identical. That's what I plan to do now. Before I saw them I thought they were something like on the Civics where it took the place of the blockout plate, but these are nothing special.

LOL, Splicing and re-pinning does NOT equal plug and play.
more like, Splice and play.

Re: (coffman08)
Why not drill holes? It's the best way to mount them, and if you do it right it will look clean and professional. I've mounted them with super strong double sided tape, but found it to be half-*** at best.

Re: (Del Sol SiR)
those are way too big and not good looking IMO. I'd rather get some smaller piaa's and recess them a little farther into the bumper.
