They're fog lights and, IMO, they're awful.  On my 87, these lights fit in the area directly below the plastic bumper in the area where there's a long piece of louvered, flexible, black plastic.  In fact, the kit included replacement pieces for that plastic piece because the old single piece would no longer fit after the fogs were installed.  If we're talking about the same lights, itsa good thing you didn't get 'em -- replacements are no longer on sale, nor are they cheap.  BTDT.
