Default Why can't I fid them?

I have tired everywhere to find ESUSE foglights for a 96-98 civic. I can't even find the round ones, or 99-00. I tried contacting ESUSE, but their "contact us" is broken. Every yellow kit I see is made by Depo, which is complete dogshit.

So does someone know a site or sponsor or ebay store or whatever that sells actual ESUSE foglights for a civic that aren't clear?

Being as you've never seen an esuse kit, then what are you basing that off of?

Depo fogs have the lenses held on with screws and a gasket, thus they leak.
Esuse kits have the lenses sealed on, like actual honda kits.

Depo kits don't utilize the factory harness under the hood, and instead run a red power wire *ghetto* much like many universal foglights.
Esuse kits utilize the factory harness.

Depo kits come on when the button is pushed, and stay on, regardless of if the car is running, or if the running lights are on.
Esuse kits are wired in just like the OEM honda kit, so they come on with the running lights, and turn off when the car turns off, thus they don't drain your battery out.

Depo kits have a button that looks nothing like the oem honda button.
Esuse kits have a button that looks almost identical to the oem honda button.

expletive Depo. Dogshit.

Whatever you guys would like to believe about your kit, that's fine. I'm not buying a depo kit.

If anyone has any useful information about where to find an Esuse kit, feel free to let me know.

no, because I'm retarded.

Of course I tried ebay. The only esuse kits they have on there are clear. Every single yellow kit on ebay at this moment in time is made by Depo.

i've tried lamin-x. it doesn't work very well, especially since they don't make a kit specifically for the 96-98. It curls and gets wavy around the edges. Looks like ****.


I'm kind of done taking alternate sugguestions. I don't care about lamin-x, I don't care about depo, I don't care about actual oem honda ones.

If you know where to find yellow esuse foglights, that's great. Much appreciated.

If not ....

Well; here's what your stating.

1. You bought and/or for some reason are bashing on depo, and are complaining about their quality.
2. You are trying to find another off brand called "esuse" which are more made like the OEM fog lights.
3. You are having problems with the laminex working correctly on the "esuse" foglights.

Here is your resolution

Stop being so cheap, and buy a set of OEM ones, or don't complain about the problems you'll face with aftermarket products.

Hmmmm.

How about this?

I've owned a depo kit. I replaced it with an esuse kit. I have an another esuse kit on my hatch, but one of the lenses is cracked.

How about you fork over the $500 it'll cost to get honda access foglights?

Didn't think so.

Oh really? Didn't know that. I got the USDM Raybrig ones, so I never really looked into it.

I'm going to figure out how to change the bulbs and put yellow ones in, I still don't think my car would look right with yellow tinted fogs.

it's pretty easy. just take the fogs off your bumper, and unscrew 4 tiny screws out of the back plate. pops right off, and the h3 bulb is held in with a retaining clip

Mine are painted, actually. It looks pretty good, but there is a distinct difference between the two. I've seen a yellow set in person, and the color and clarity is just unbeatable. I used VANS yellow lens paint, and that turned out pretty good, but my original kit was the *gag* ion color, so I can see shade of blue, purple, and green in my fogs when I light them up. I also want a new wiring harness because I tapped my city lights into the foglight harness, but I recently got a set of honda oem citylight sockets and a wiring harness from PW:JDM, so I want to wire them up stock so they come on with the running lights and off with the headlights.

So all in all, I want a brand new set, with brand new lenses, with a brand new harness.

I'm fucked for the time being
