    Genuine foglights from holden are around $300 for the pair, if you can find them that is. you can get a pair of driving lights from supercheap for $30 same size just not curved lenses light the orginals. (includes wiring kit)
    The bezels are around $30 for the pair including clips. theres a neet little how-to by wagon_wheel on how to install the bezels in the front bar.

    Wiring up the foggies you have 2 options,
    . try finding a loom from a calais or ss and graft it into your existing loom (hard way)
    . wire them up seperately using a light wiring kit.

    second of the 2 options is the easiest in your situation as the exec normally dont have existing wiring, could be wrong. you can check to see if you have the plugs near the headlights and contacts where the foglamp relay is located.

    the bezels on ebay are more expensive than when buying from holden. also you get the clips from holden whereas some of the ebay bezels dont come with them, so just be wary
