question on 04-05 fog lights

I found a good deal on the fog lights but it says for a 4-door. Will the 4 door fog lights work on the 2-door? Here is the url http://www.procarparts.com/store-lis...IVIC&year=2004

Allow me to comment. Those fogs that you think are a good deal are really fake replica oem STYLE. They are NOT oem honda made. Honda retails their fogs for $350 and I've seen them go for $250. Now that's a better deal and you get the real thing.

But to answer your question, coupe and sedan fogs are the same thing. The only difference is the illunimation color on the interior switch. Sedan will have yellow green and coupe will have red.

to tell you the true, OEM style and OEm make no difference to me. Price does make a difference to me.

Get the replicas then. You can always change the color of the switch light. I opened mine up and wired in a blue led. I strongly recommend getting a few sheets of film from lamin-x.com and putting them on the fog lens. Otherwise, you're gonna have broken lights real fast. It's worth the $20 and you just stick on.

Well, I had the dealer do mine for $175 because it's cold out and I'm getting lazy But yeah it is involved, and I know on the 01-03 there was some bumper cutting involved and finding a place for the relay. I think the 04 might be easier, and all the harness connections are plug in. So basically you need to install the fog lens and then run all the wiring around and to the switch inside.

No problem. Also if you want yellow light for the fogs for better visibility, they sell ion bulbs or Impulse is also offering to mod the lights by putting in a yellow bulb cover.

well, lets see how the euro clears go. But I won't have them for a while. Give it a few months.
