Are those the fog lenses or the driving ones? Do the TYC's use the OEM style mounts?
Likin' the plastic lenses! I'm so close to removing mine & installing the non-fog valance! Replacing those lights even at $25.00 a shot for a pair is getting expensive!!!

You are right! I dug around the net and came up with this:

I saved it to my computer so I could zoom in and I can see they're the ones I want. Thanks for the point in the right direction.

:lol: I was wondering if anyone would catch that I had them.

Originally I had the OEM foglights (genuine GM ones) and I can tell you the glass is thin on them. Went through a few of them. I switched to the KC set and they are considerably thicker, have a better light output and the angle looks good with our trucks. I'm actually using the GM housing and brackets with just the light itself as it was 99% the same size as the OEM ones.

FWIW I went through at least 7 of the OEM lenses. I've only had 2 of the KC ones break - one was by a rock and the other *I* smashed into a stump (ooops).

Some more pictures...

Mine are wired to come on with the low beams. Control wire for the relay is spliced into the low beam wire where it is tied up along the RH fender in a wire loom. I took out all the original headlight wiring after that point and ran new 14 ga wire. Ground goes directly to the battery for the headlights and the fogs are grounded to the radiator support. I ran the control wire through the firewall and the door sill to my power block I added under the seat. It turns a relay on that powers both the low beams and the fog lights. The high beams are still original wiring.

You don't have to make it that complicated though. Could be done as simple as just a toggle switch with fused power to the battery and a ground somewhere.
