86 wiring diagram delima

I have been trying to find a correct wiring diagram for a 86 Corvette headlight system for awhile now. I've tried chilton's , haynes , and motor name brand manuals. None of them show the correct color codes for vettes with the foglight option in 84 -87 years. Does anyone know where I can obtain a factory builders book ; or if anyone offers the proper diagrams needed online?

Thank you for this info, I also need the diagram for the fog lights and turn signals the fog lights are actually what I'm having trouble with if I turn the switch on for the fog lights the headlights doors won't open but the lights will come on with the actual headlight switch, if I turn the fog light switch off the doors will open but won't close with the headlight switch until I turn the fog light switch back on
