there is a common problem with fox's having your symptoms, that i believe stem from factory wire gauging being to small and overheating with the fog lights. There is a step by step cure, and even mod, so you can have the parking lights and fog lights on somewhere on the net, just look it up!

The above post is correct. There is no "kit" you can buy to solve your problem.
There is just a bunch of different methods you can use to solve your problem. Search online for a foglight re-wire for 87-93 mustangs and you will get tons of hits. Pick the article you understand best and do what it says.
If you are patient and re-wire them correctly, your problems will be solved. I did it on my 1987 GT and it worked like a charm.

There sort of is... kinda $$$ though. The cheap way works fine

That "kit" is exactly the same as what you alreayd have in your car EXCEPT for the larger gauge wire.
Spend 5 bucks and re-wire it with large gauge wire using everything you already have. It is just as easy and you save 184 bucks.

The circuit breaker is installed in the head light switch and gets hot and turns off the lights. If you replace the switch and the multifuncion switch the problem will be solved.
Or, you could do as the others have said.
I bought the kit and that fixed my problems
