Default Fog-lights

Ok, so about a month or so ago I ordered fog lights that were supposed to be specifically for my car, had a picture of a 2006 and everything. They came in the mail and i hadn't opened them b/c I was calling around for pricing and such and with work it gets kind of hectic trying to find time to do it myself...so the problem is that i finally opened it and eBay having such a short return policy on this item, i can't return it. The fog lights are bigger than the holes where they go, does anyone know if I can maybe take out the headlights and be able to somehow bolt it on that way? All of the necessary wiring is there and that isn't a problem. Any ideas guys?

I dont understand what you mean by take out the headlights and put them in that way. Do you mean take the headlights out so you have room to access the inside of the bumper cover? If so, I wouldnt do that, I would pull the splash liners and access them that way.

Are these the lights you bought? If so, they just snap in from the back. There are tabs on the back of the fog lights holes that the base of the fog light just snaps over.

No, someone on eBay said they were for my car specifically problem is that they aren't the fog lights that fit in those holes...morons on ebay...i wonder though if there is a way i can bolt them on behind those holes b/c that was a waste of $60.00

You payed 60 dollars for fog lights off ebay?!?! Im sorry but you got ripped off. Are there instructions that came with the lights? If not, I would contact the seller and ask if they could send you some. I dont think there is any hard surface behind the opening that you could mount those to. If it were me, I would just get a set of OEM lights and try to sell the ones you already bought to recoup some of your money.

I checked gmpartdirect for these.

It could be this is for each assembly and NOT for a set of them.
