You'll want to do a search, cause there are lots of threads on fogs. In general, poepel go with OEM Style instead of the real thing because they are cheaper and the same thing. You can pick them up from tornactive.com for $100. Look in the tech forums.

THe only reason I don't wanna go with the OEM's is that they won't fit (specifically) on a bodykit, so I figure I might as well wait and get like a pair of Hellas or PIAA's ..

But they're supposed to be really good

I may be biased, but all too often with lighting products, i found you get what you pay for. just my opinon.

I think that's true of most things. However, I've seen and looked at both the OEM style from tornactive (which I have) and real OEM ones, which my friend has. For the $120 dollars more for OEM, you're really not getting much more. Think about it, a foglight is plastic, glass, wires, all built from a mold. So for the extra $120, what are you getting? Harder Plastic? Harder Glass? I doubt it. At most you can argue better craftsman ship. But for $120 more, I could buy two sets of tornactive OEM style and have one set for backup. Go with OEM style, they're the way to go. If you want to do a body kit for the front, the OEM's won't fit so you'll want to take that into consideration. People say the glass on the OEM style is fragile, but glass is glass, if something hits it at 60 miles an hour, it's gonna break, no matter if it's OEM or OEM style.

The glass is very fragile on both the OEM & the "OEM Style" fogs. I've gone thru 3 sets, one only lasted a week so I gave up on them. Might just be my bad luck but that's too expensive to keep replacing so I'm going with something else and see if I have better luck.

I've had my OEM style fogs on one day before one cracked and I've been searching everywhere for a replacement. I'm too cheap to pay for the entire kit. Does anyone know where I can get just the driver side light itself? Maybe someone's got one left from when theirs cracked? SQCivic? You got a driver side light lying arround from your manny sets?
