- Tue Mar 03, 2009 7:12 pm #100256 Im looking at possibly buying some oem fogs for my 92 hatch cx. Just wondering how difficult they are to put in, the cutting on the bumper and whatnot, and if anyone knows if there is a write up on where all the wires etc. go. Thanks Alot!

- Wed Mar 04, 2009 5:09 am #100408 I just put mine in like a week ago. it isnt that hard cutting the bumper, depending on your skill. i cut mine out using tin snips Mad JDM skillz


theres an instructional forum on here somewhere, i couldnt find

- Wed Mar 04, 2009 5:13 am #100411 yeah really easy, there is a line on the bumper where you cut. for me i cut it short then test fit and trimmed till it was perfect.

wiring isn't hard at all, took me no time even with the instructions i jot that that were in Japanese lol

- Wed Mar 04, 2009 5:34 am #100427 Thanks guys, i appreciate it. Ill probably have to post a new thread when i get the fogs in, because im no good at wiring anything but some speaks and a stereo. But this decided me on buying them =]

thank man, that was real helpful.

No prob, dude.

- Sun Mar 08, 2009 6:06 am #101382 one note, i'm on my second set of ebay fog lights now, i completely burnt up the wiring harness (like had smoke rolling out of the hood) because the mount arc'd on the front bumper support while the so called fuse just melted to it's housing and allowed current to flow to burn shit up

so this next go round, i took that SOB off and no problems so far, but it's only been a few days and i'm rockin the 3000k HID's

just a heads up

- Sun Mar 08, 2009 6:30 pm #101455 haha thats good to know. I ebayed that shit too, so ill keep that in mind and hope i dont have any electrical fires.

- Tue Mar 10, 2009 10:25 pm #102055 Just got them wired in, thanks to all those that gave advice and links, made it way easier.

- Wed Mar 11, 2009 3:45 am #102161 glad to help

man i must say that the difference between the standard H3/55w bulbs and the HID's is amazing! how do you like them compared to just the headlights? i noticed that they helped a lot, i like the way they look too, i painted that fake carbon fiber looking crap black.

- Wed Mar 11, 2009 5:38 pm #102288 I like them! Those look dope, The tint to the light is nice. I was thinking about maybe doing the ls300 conversion for my fogs if i can find some used ones. But that looks good man, I want me some HID's now

- Wed Mar 11, 2009 8:52 pm #102347 ha, thanks...i like these fogs cause they act like a projector lens and has a nice flat cutoff up top... what is an ls300 conversion?

now if i could only do something about the damn headlights...they shoot the light everywhere in the OEM housings, any good retrofits?

- Wed Mar 11, 2009 8:56 pm #102349 fog lights are super easy to install especially if you have air tools I used air cutter thing to cut my bumper and it took like 10 minutes..wiring wasn't bad either

- Wed Mar 11, 2009 9:12 pm #102354 ls300 conversion is the fogs out of a lexus, they fit right onto the eg bumper, with no retrofitting, thier just brighter and higher quality. If you can find em used or something its a worthwhile mod.
