Put up a want to buy post in the 4th gen classifieds. Or look for one at a wrecking/pull-a-part yard.

i see on ebay that they have assembley for 97-99 but only bulbs for 96. i think the 97-99 is the same assembly but not listed for that years because not many came with the fog lamps.

The 95/96 fog lights are different. The 97-99 fogs will not fit on 95/96.

You could drill a hole in the bottom to drain the water, clean it out, and replace the bulb. IIRC, the bulb is an H3.



When I first replaced the bulbs on mine, I found out that the fog light housing was broken at the back where the bulb attached. I put a new bulb in, covered the back with duct tape, and let it go. Many rains and high pressure car washes later, the light still works.
