Everything that I got in my kit when I ordered. I had to get my pcm flashed so it would "read" that I had foglights though. I paid $83 and some change through GM Parts Direct. For the pcm they charged $80!

I saw some of the same auctions on ebay, and I had seriously considered bidding. That was until I saw that you'd have to have your computer flashed.

The first is definitely the best bet. I wouldn't pay over $80 for it. And like they say, the pcm has to be programmed to react to this. I believe if you access to a Tech II, then you should be able to do this.

When I had my 2000 SCSB, I bought this kit and I happen to be a good parts dept. customer, so I had them see if one of the service guys would set my pcm. He did it in the parking lot, no charge.

What is so crazy about the kit is that if you by a single fog light, its like $60+. Had to buy one a while back and then saw that you could by the kit. but never again!!

Just buy a similar set of aftermarkets that look the same size. You get the look, plus you get more wattage and light without those damn factory housings melting under more than 27W.

Is it the PCM or the BCM that needs to be reprogrammed??

I am going to eventually get some for mine off of ebay. From what I have heard, the 03s (and most earlier models) don't need any pcm programming.
