I have pjdm fogs and they are great. I hard wired the switch to the battery because I didn't feel like hooking up the harness but they are quality fogs. I bought the unpainted ones which are cheaper.
The hardest part in my opinion was cutting the bumper but that's only because I didn't have the right tools.

It depends on what year car you have.

As far as 6th gens:
- OEM - I've heard of no problems.
- Esuse - I've heard of no problems.
- DEPO - I've heard of problems on the '96-'98s ONLY.

So if you have a '99-'00, you'll probably be safe. I understand their stock foglights are pretty cheap for that front though. I'd look into the Esuse lights for the '96-'98s though. The USDM ones are difficult to find, and the overseas yellow ones (the real ones, new) I've heard of going for around $400.

I have a '98 EX and previously had DEPO square clear foglights. It was hell to have them. They would stop working because of a bad ground at least every other day. Hitting or kicking them usually woudl make them pop back on, but sometimes it took several kicks... and even then they might go back out the next bump you hit.

I also had problems with a leak. I siliconed everythign I could possibly see that could be the source of the leak. I never did get it to stop and eventually bought another set (Esuse) when the screw holding the bulb clip snapped off in the housing (we were trying to solve the grounding issue).

I've had the Esuse lights since, drive in a lot more rain (moved from DE to WA) and have never had any problems in the least with my Esuse foglights.

I really urge you to get Esuse lights if you have a '96-'98 and don't want to fork out enough for OEM.
