Default Installing Foglights/Driving Lights

I was wondering if anyone has installed a set of foglights/driving lights in their 2006/2007 Monte Carlo that did not have them installed from the factory.

I would like to install a set of OEM or OEM like foglights and would like recommendations on what product would fit my car with little or no effort to install them.

I am looking for a total turnkey solution lights, wiring, switch, etc.

Thanks

I have a 5th Gen...
However...
I had mine installed via an auto accessory shop. They are turn key operable... Via an illuminated switch...

I believe ..even though there aftermarket... They look like a factory option/install .
I have changed the look on mine somewhat... But I'm still using the Fog Lights! (Had to replace them as I had one lens that was cracked)

You could probably find oem or at least look a like oems on ebay. At least for the 6th gen to me they are just for looks since they don't really shine like my low beam headlights. To get them so they are on only when the car was on is just wire them into a fuse that is only on when the car is on. You could wire a switch in the car so they are not always on and turn them on whenever you want. I would run a wire into the engine bay and run a relay so the lights would run off the battery.
