if you're talking about the stock SE fogs, the switch is just to the left of the steering wheel, right next to the cruise control and mirror buttons

the stock bulbs are H3 and you can get those at any auto parts store

Did you say you have a GXE? I don't think GXE's come with fogs. I think you mistaken fogs for your turn signals.

i can't recall what size of bulbs they were, but they are the easiest things to get to on the car. Unscrew them with a philips head screwdriver and check what size.

I THINK the corner bulbs are 1157...I got some Polarg hyperwhite ones and did the rewire -- looked great, but one of the filaments from each of them have blown out so now they look stock again

if your talking about the 91 se max, its on the left side of the steering wheel, and there should be 2 buttons under the turn signal switch (also know as the stick to turn on and off the head lights) anyway there is 2 buttons under that, it should be the second one on from the left, its the button with the

Yeah, the H3 bulb will replace teh ones you have now, but for the stock wiring scheme, the fogs can ONLY be turned on if the headlights are on. Try to search the forums for all kinds of stuff about fog lights and stuff.
