Rep Power: 291 I don't know about the oem honda lights, but the replica lights come on with the parking lights. Plus the best part is that they stay ON when your bright lights are on.

Rep Power: 0 One more thing the oem fogs turn off when you turn on your high beams. The ebay brand stays on even if you have your high beams on. The install process isnt that hard at all, just be carefull when cutting the bumper. You can also go to honda and ask them for the instruction on installing the oem fogs.

Rep Power: 291 You can download the instructions for either the replica lights or the oem honda lights from my site.

OEM Honda Foglight Instructions
Keep in mind that the replica lights were made for UK models with right hand drive.

Rep Power: 0 Yes they are for the right hand drive model cars but if you run the wires on the left hand side it fits just fine. Also their is another difference between the oem fogs and the ebay fogs. The oem fogs have a metal shield around the lights which keep the beam of light going straight. The ebay fogs do not have this metal shield making the beam of light shoot out towards the front of the car and also to the side. Keep in mind that when you recieve the ebay fogs they say on them not dot approved and for off road use only.

Rep Power: 310 I have "ebay foglights". They're oem replicas by some company (I forgot the name, but it's on the lens of both lights), I got for $70 shipped (BuyItNow option) but not foreign like bellz's.
On for about 2 years now, no cracks just small dots from road debris. Owners who cracked theirs (oem or not)probably kicked the lens or ran over an animal or something. The lens is as thick as the windshield glass.
I don't know squat about electrical wiring bulltcrap so I went and got it installed at my favourite ICE shop near where I work.
PS. I told them to put the button in one of the slots next to the powerwindows switches, above the hidden coin tray and below the driver's side vent. Some buttons fit there, some buttons fit in the center console. I have a 2002 center console in my 2001 coupe, but the little slot in the console is covered by my cdchanger receiver.

Rep Power: 0 I bought the eBay fogs and one of them cracked the same day I put it on. The other one cracked a month later. I fooled those guys at Honda into thinking that they were OEM and under waranty, so they changed both of them for free. So now I have OEM housing, and replica wiring. And there is a huge difference in the housing, beam pattern, reflector, and most importantly, the glas on them is much stronger (although after a year one of the OEM housings brock too)
I'm definetly gonna change them to plastiglas

Rep Power: 0 hey finally installed mine the depo // fairly straight forward install although i have no encountered an odd problem...perhaps someone can shed some light.
problem is the harness i received had 9006 connectors at the end instead of connectors for the h11 bulbs...
fogs work perfectly, however now that everything is plugged in properly the actual fan that blows air through my vents does not work? the switches obviously still respond because i still get hot air if i turn the temp to hot the fan just doesn't blow. and if i'm in defrost mode and turn on the fan switch the ac light will automatically come on like it's supposed to, so everything is working except it's not actually blowing air out.
removed the fog light harness from the fuse box (which should theoretically revert everything to stock functionality) however the fan still doesn't work, anyone know if the wiring is somehow tied into the fan? i'm thinking this harness was not the proper harness since it had 9006 connectors..however the switch is a 2001 switch and the fogs do work so the wiring seems good.
i'm losing my mind trying to troubleshoot this...perhaps another brain can figure out my situation.
