Ebay Foglite smaller; import fake? need to modify base by drilling a hole?

Ebay Foglite smaller; import fake? need to modify base by drilling a hole?

Merry Christmas Camaro member-friends,

I had ordered a right fog lite for my 93 chevy v6 Camaro, i'm not sure if it was O.E.M.

but it was a tad smaller rectagular fog light

the exterior of the one I currently have has a small dime-size crack, when i have the lights on full and I used to tap on the right fog light, it would turn on

*Is this a ground electrical problem?
**Where is a good place to buy the right size, these seemed like Chinese knockoffs and i got a full refund from the seller on Ebay like the seller knew something was wrong with them.

My mobility is limited so going to the junkyard isn't a possibility.

How about getting one from a "transmission shop"

I hear the front desk guy at my transmission shop call the Chevy / GM auto parts dealer

What do you think is the average range to get this pesky right foglight working***which***

which, I cannot state this enough only Christmas Eve no longer lights up while tapping it with my fingers.

Big bummer

I'm left with a cockeyed left foglite that works

What are we looking at in terms of autopart for the right fog light or both if they are sold in pairs and labor costs?

I really want to avoid Ebay and am willing to perhaps get a discount from the transmission shop I spent $750 in 4 days on
\
Any help would be greatly appreciated

have you tried replacing the bulb? i found a set of new stock ones on ebay for mine a few years back, not cheap. pita to install but not hard,,, if that makes sense.

thanks. looking in to junkyard material for my friend to pick up. he goes there 2x or more per month; it's 30 miles away from where I'm at. but a $239 right fog lite made by the original manufacturer like the one sold on classic industries which u showed me and which i copied to an MS word document-- when instead--- it can be purchased off one in a boneyard T-boned or rear ended into junk-disabled-dead-status for $30 is way worth it. thanks.
