Default Some questions, any advice is greatly appreciated!

ok, i bought an 07' civic ex coupe in march. it isnt equiped with fog lights. i was looking at buying them off of ebay, take in consideration i cant do $h!t with cars, is this something i could install myself with the instructions? or would i need to have them put in? and does anyone hear a popping noise when u shift from reverse to drive then accelerate?

I wouldnt suggest installing anything yourself if you dont consider yourself the least bit mechanically inclined. I've worked on cars a fair amount, and I don't think it would be worth my time to install the fogs... easier and warrantied to just pay the dealer to do it

puting the car in any gear will make a "noise" somewhat..if that makes sense..just saying its not 'totally' silent..
