i saw those last week, they look good and the lense is glass

greenEX 07-19-2006 12:28 PM

129.99 seems kind of high to me to be a blowout sale but is that a good deal?

exturbo6 07-19-2006 12:30 PM

nice im going to order them! nice find...rep'd

dirtySAMURAI 07-19-2006 12:44 PM

i would say dont waste your money. i would personally buy another ebay kit before purchasing "JDM EM" fog lights for $130 +shipping...

exturbo6 07-19-2006 12:54 PM

well its what a lil more then the ebay ones, and alot cheaper then buying them from the honda dealer.

and you have to tint the fogs yellow if you want them like that instead of buying them already done. just popem in.

greenEX 07-19-2006 01:03 PM

its free shipping but yeah i'm with dirty sam

from ebay:

Aren't these the same as the ones on Password but alot cheaper?

dirtySAMURAI 07-19-2006 01:05 PM

i thoguht the regular clear ones were going for $29.99 + $10 shipping or something? so that's $40 + a $5 can of yellow krylon paint and you have yellow fogs. :shrug:

edit:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/01-02...QQcmdZViewItem

buy it now price; $21.99
shipping: 19.99
total: 41.98

HondaKorn 07-19-2006 01:14 PM

but krylon wears off and lamin-x burns vs a yellow glass lense.....but if you look at the wiring and the switch, looks like the ebay crappola....might be a gimmick....hmmm

Rennen 07-19-2006 01:24 PM

i've had yellow lamin-x on clear fogs for a few months now, and they still look new.

exturbo6 07-19-2006 01:24 PM

^ you really think it would be a gimmick?

HondaKorn 07-19-2006 01:31 PM

maybe, what are the ebay yellow fog lenses made out of? They both look similar.....maybe just using the jdm theme to boost prices......but if they came with an oem switch, im all over it!!

TheSmuggler 07-19-2006 01:33 PM

Well, both of those pictures, the ebay and the apsswrod jdm ones, dont have the same parts as the oems (im looking at my spare parts from my oem stuff now). I'd reckon to say the password ones are the same as the ebay ones.

exturbo6 07-19-2006 01:34 PM

mmm interesting...but the only differance is that the JDM ones from yellow already!

TheSmuggler 07-19-2006 01:35 PM

^What?

Both the ebay and assword jdm (pun intended) are yellow

eye_see_you 07-19-2006 01:44 PM

atleast passwordjdm has quality parts unlike all the ebay stuff

exturbo6 07-19-2006 01:47 PM

i thought the ebay fogs come clear and you have spray them yellow? the password jdm ones come yellow already..thats what im saying..so that saves you time and whatnot, plus its ebay. i dont buy stuff from ebay. i dont want to get shafted. i hear about too many poeple. no matter what the product is.

greenEX 07-19-2006 02:18 PM

check out my link earlier in this thread i posted one to the same xact fogs on ebay (Yellow) same switch and everything for about half that price shipping included!

gearbox 07-19-2006 03:50 PM

idk, looks like a scam. jdm fogs aren't yelolow theyre ion (blue yellow mix). those look just like the ebay ones. and glass lens will get broken the day you install it.

exturbo6 07-19-2006 03:52 PM

Yes, now i wanna get those. i need to find those fogs but fit a 2004. thanks you

i just bought those fogs from that exact same seller 2 ****ing weeks ago and have yet to recieve them. he wont even email me back or message me back or anything. 99% seller rating?? dont know how he got that when he wont even respond to a ****ing message.....hes an asshair.

TheSmuggler 07-19-2006 04:41 PM

I don't think we are arguing weather the password JDM ones are "real" or not, because they're not, it's simple as that. think they are wondering if the ebay ones and the password JDM ones are the same thing. It simply could be that PWJDM is buying them from ebay and then tossing them on their site, making a 60+ dollars profit off them.

burke420 07-19-2006 11:25 PM

maybe so... but i have a buddy with some for his EMI and his have been going strong for 4 months, so no fade, no problems. switch works great. i cant wait till i ge them tho. i dont car if i may have gottem ripped...but if so, i'd rather know i bought them from Password, rahther ebay. i read many ppl having problems wit hthe switches. i want a kit i know friends have had a like oem install.

Em2onCPRs 07-20-2006 02:01 AM

every shop sellls the same crap.. i think its same thing as ebay ones.. i think its better to just the buy the clear ebay ones and then lamin-xed them.. they will only melt if you use any nokya or hyper white bulbs. other than that like halogen bulbs you are clear.

HondaKorn 07-20-2006 05:55 AM

they will burn on reg bulbs, at least they did on mine.....thats why i went ion :-)

TheSmuggler 07-20-2006 09:55 AM

Yeah, they burned mine. Next up, ebay fogs. Luckily I have oem everything else so just the lamp assembly's going on.

Honda_Inspired 07-20-2006 10:03 AM

How about buying clear ebay fogs and use yellow tinted bulbs?

TheSmuggler 07-20-2006 11:24 AM

I have the yellow bulbs, but I like the look of the whole housing being yellow during the day. I tried the Krylon stained glass spray paint, it made it like a rough textured glass. It's yellow, but not transparent all the way, kinda opaque. Perhaps I did something wrong.

Em2onCPRs 07-20-2006 11:27 AM

no problems on my car.. i drive a lot..

exturbo6 07-20-2006 11:51 AM

so then whats a nice fog you can get that the lens is already yellow? ebay still?

HondaKorn 07-20-2006 12:23 PM

ebay yellow and a yellow bulb = all kinds of yellowness.....or u can go ion like me :-)

exturbo6 07-20-2006 12:43 PM

well if i went your route, what do i need to do?

HondaKorn 07-20-2006 01:13 PM

get a connection in J-pan or search other auction sites and other forums......I had a guy in the uk get me the part numbers for: folding mirrors, rear foglight, and some other stuff......

exturbo6 07-20-2006 01:53 PM

you dont have the part numbers for the fogs?

HondaKorn 07-20-2006 01:54 PM

ill check, im at werk now...lol

Honda_Inspired 07-20-2006 04:06 PM

Ion right here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/01-02...09950208QQrdZ1

I'm just concerned about the quality :shrug:

TheSmuggler 07-20-2006 04:55 PM

Yeah I used to have the ion fogs. I got rid of them though because they were way to blue for my tastes, and I'm a super jdm whore :rofl:

Hayz 07-20-2006 05:00 PM

what the hell password and ebay are the SAME both are made of glass I had the ebay ones for over a year the fine if not perfect you can say ebay is shit but unless you've bought them I don't want to hear it its a waste to buy fogs for over a $100 just get the ebay ones and move on....

TheSmuggler 07-20-2006 05:07 PM

*sigh* I guess I'm going to have to break down and buy the ebay ones. My last resort =*(

HondaKorn 07-20-2006 05:28 PM

get ion....nothing less than JDM brad.....how dare u buy usdm??? j/k

TheSmuggler 07-20-2006 05:43 PM

I used to have ION's WAY back in the day. I got them when I got my tailights. I got rid of them though because I don't like how blue they are.

burke420 07-20-2006 07:11 PM

well... i will take what i have and love it! i know i may have spent more, but if somethings wrong, customer service will be easier.

exturbo6 07-21-2006 06:40 AM

the ions look nice. but they have a blue tint to them with yellow. i just want staight up yellow. i wanna get lexus fogs. those are the nicest ones ive ever seen that are yellow.

HondaKorn 07-21-2006 06:43 AM

Then ebay yellow fogs and nokya yellow bulb would make it really yellow

exturbo6 07-21-2006 06:51 AM

mm i have to search ebay and find ones that fit a 04.

4bangin 07-21-2006 08:22 AM

well i recieved my ebay yellow fogs. they are nice looking and fit great. they are basically the exact same thing as oem fogs except they are yellow and the housing is metal whereas the oem fogs housing was plastic. took about 15 min to install. hardest part was putting the bumpercover back on by myself.

burke420 07-21-2006 05:54 PM

nice....how they look on??
