Well what lighting did you use because I think that its the grill because I did the same thing and didn't notice much but when I made a new grill for it the lights look awsome now the grill dosent let much light threw
BTW are those beretta GTZ rims on the car They look just like mine but a different colour Im amazed that there is someone else with the same rims on a grand am

StreetGlow Optix LED singles. @ Meijer's for $8 for 4.
I picked up the GTZ rims from my Automotive teacher for $25 for all four. He had them on his 95 SE.

Yeah, those LED singles are made of pure fail. Neons should work well, or if you want to stick with LED's try getting some of the little 4-inch strips that they sell at places like Autozone. I've seen creative use of those on my friend's Jetta. Sorry, not sure the exact brand I'm mentioning, but I'm sure if you fish around you can find them.

If you want red LEDs behind that grill go to JCWhintey and find the LED light bar that is 14"s wide with 50 LEDs for $18. I purchased it for my new third brake light and it's seriously blinding it's so bright.

I did a similar thing. I put L shaped aluminum behind my grill, then installed two 8" red Neons to the angle aluminum.
It made it a little bit brighter, and I wired them to my fog lamps.
Oh yea, whered you get the blue lamps, and what brand are they?
Did you just mount them, and what plug did you use to hook them up.
Thx, I can take pictures of my set up if you wish.

I believe there Led light in the fog light housings:???:
The LED's are drilled into the housing, I cut the connector off and spliced them in. They were StreetGlow Optix LED's.

Hey 95 GT.
Could something like this work?
Just add them in the fog lamp housing, and splice them into the fog light wirering harness??

The "Hyper leds" are complete crap don't go with them I have got them a few times and they always stop working after only a few weeks
Really, anything with a positive and negative wire would work. the brand was StreetGlow Optix, they were L.E.D. Singles, they were actually ment for interior accents. I found them at Meijer's, which I don't think there are any in Canada. And they were clearing their stock of Optix products, so there probably aren't any left. You might find some online though.
