OEM style foglights
Has anyone ever bought one of these from ebay? I saw oem style ones for 79 dollars and debating if it is worth it.

Rep Power: 0 I have them and I love them. You can get them from procarparts.com. They only took me about an hour to put on. You have to find a new switch though if you have an 02 EX or newer. Or you can put the switch in place of the cruse button.

Rep Power: 0 Changing the subject a little, what kind of hyper white bulbs for the OEM fog lamps are available? I know it´s an H11 but I haven´t been able to find hyper whites in that specific bulb setting.
Now that I got the sylvania silverstars in my headlamps, my fog lamps don´t match and look too yellow.

Rep Power: 310 I got mine from ebay. Almost 1 years since install, runs great. I had them professionally installed, so if anything happens, they'll repair for free. The OEM Replicas I bought from ebay also came with a manufacturer's warranty, so look for a professional seller.

Rep Power: 285 Linky for tornactive. I'm thinking about getting them but aren't you guys afraid of having them crack from debris in the road...like on the freeway or something?

Ok, I have a very rough page started, showing all the pics. No text yet though. I'm going to add all that and format it with thumbnail pics later tonight or tomorrow, so stay tuned.
It is NOT 56k friendly. All the pics are 640x480 and there's 40 of them!!

Rep Power: 0 wow nice pics.. is the wire from torn active long enough to reach the cruise button area instead of placing the switch near the cig socket area? did you have to cut out the plastic part out to fit the fog light??

Rep Power: 0 hey, i don't get where the last two pictures (of the cutout) are coming from...are they out of sequence? those two seem like the part right after you show the parts and right before you start installing them. i dunno, just curious about where they belong

Rep Power: 291 I would think it could reach, but you may have to run the harness into the car on the drivers side. I don't see a problem with doing that. The harness is so simple to hook up, it's almost idiot-proof.
