Just picked up a set of OEM fogs for my 97 civic. Cant figure out how they mount to the bumper. They are the rectangle ones, not the circle ones. Anyone have any pics of them mounted on the bumper? Can they mount to any civic bumper for that year or are they bumper specific?
thanks...... here is a pic of what they look like:

Where did you get them? I'd like a set.

hybridej7

i got them off another h-t member. they say depo on them so you might be able to find a set somewhere.....i just need someone that has them to help me on how they install to the bumper....or some pics would help also

if it mounts the same as the rounds one (which I have a set of yellow f.s.) you will need to cut part of the grill off below the bracket. i have the full instructions at home, pm me and i can hook you up later, if no one has helped you yet

hybridej7

im not sure if they mount the same as the circle ones but if you could hook me up with those instructions that would help too......

your welcome

hybridej7

not sure if they are 100% oem or not. i found those instructions but the mounting brackets are different than on the ones i got. but thanks though....

if they are the sqaure ones they should have come with the mounting hardware. you cut out where they go in, but leave the top little peice of plastic still in and then there are some mounting claps, that go on eachside of the top piece of the plastic . thats about it. did they come with instructions? good luck

hybridej7

i bought them used from another h-t member......
if there is anyone with these same lights, hook me up with some pics please!!!
bump to all for any help

Depot are as close to OEM as you can get without paying the riduculous price. They work great. For those who are interested in finding a set, Eaby dawg, for 60 something bux. Can't beat it. All hardware, wiring harness, switch, and instructions are included.

Give me a second post and I'll help you get these bad boys mounted, just wanted to help out those who want some OEM look a like fogs too.

here is a pic of the on my car, same lights, I just painted mine amber.


so now u should get an idea of how they should look

ice11honda

this is your driver side light.

First you will need to cut out the middle piece of the grill on each side where the lights will be placed. Only cut that piece that runs parallell to the ground. Do not cut out any other part of your grill.The black bracket you have in the pic I copied is for the other light (pass. side), and the light in this pic is the driver side light. The black bracket is upside down. The brass piece is upside down too, but that is okay right now we'll go with this. Take the bracket in this pic and set it on top of the brass piece just the way you have them in the pic. Now take 2 screws and get them started so the pieces become one. Now flip it over cuz remember it is upside down, and slide the brass piece over the lip of the grill in the back side of your bumper on the pass. side while the black piece stays under the lip of the grill. Tighten the screws all the way and the brackets should tighten together to squeeze on the lip of your grill. These 2 pieces come together and clamp onto the lip of the grill behind your bumper. If you notice the light has a curved lip on the top of it. This for a long screw that goes throught the 2 aligned holes in the black metal bracket. Then there is an arm type piece that comes down from the top of the light where the little lip I just pointed out is, and it has a hole for a screw that goes through the black metal bracket that also has an arm that hangs down with a hole in it for the samme screw. Screw the bracket to the light. Repeat these steps for the driver side. If youneed pics I will gladly pull out my bracket to give you a better look at what I'm saying. Good luck.

Damn I want a set. Anyone know if they will work if you have a front mount? Could I fit them in there?

ice11honda

I don't know for sure, but judging from your picture I would have to say they wouldn't fit.

hybridej7

thanks ice, i will have to try that this weekend. any pics of the lights from behind actually mounted on the bumper? that would help me even more.......

ice11honda

you ask, and you shall receive. I'll snap some tomorrow morning in the day light.

thanks ice...now that i read it a couple times, it makes sense. the pics would help also. i didnt get the long screw that goes into the black bracket, here i come lowes....anyways, thanks for the help and the pics also....big bump for you...

ice11honda

here ya go my honda brotha. This first pic is the part of the grill you will be cutting out.

these next 2 pics are the bracket for the driver's side and how it goes together


another pic of it together

now the placement

remember slide the brass piece over the lip of the grill and the black part under and then tighten screws all the way down to cause the pieces to clamp together.


hang the light on the bracket via long screw you are missing with lip on light

now screw the light to the bracket by like so

and a pic from behind the light while attatched, bad pic I know

final product


now complete the pass side an waaaalaaaa
good luck bro
