ive seen this done on a few cars at meets that ive gone to but i wanted to know if there was a DIY write up for putting 99-00 fog lights on any 92-95civic coupe or hatch here on ht.. (searched a little bit and nothing came up except pictures of what it looked like)

currently i know that you have to trim the bumper but farther than that i dont know. i need more info on how to position the brackets

EDIT: IF YOU DONT LIKE THE WAY IT LOOKS KEEP YOUR THOUGHTS TO YOURSELF AND DONT POST.. IM LOOKING FOR A WRITE UP AND NOT YOUR OPINION ON WEATHER YOU THINK IT LOOKS GOOD OR NOT..

heres a quick picof what it looks like when complete:

anyone?

 

come on guys?? no help

 

im not a fan of the way that looks
bump for some help though

 

quick pic up: now lets try and get some feedback on how to do this

 

think about it.....all you do is cut your bumper out to fit the fog light in....secure it behind somehow...whichever u feel is best...and wire it up..get a wiring diagram from a civic eg and just tack into the wires for the foglights on an eg...put in your fog switch and blam

 

its really self explainitory. just don't install them crooked like the tool from the pic

 

too much work when you can buy the oems style one and have it drop in and out.

 

just don't do it!
get the ones that belong to the car.

 

the only reason i want to do it is because its different and the em1 fogs are alot brighter that the eh2.. the way i look at it you still have to take off the bumper, wire them up anyway and run a switch.. so whats the big deal in trimming the bumper a little bit..

i want to see how people bracketed theres up behind the bumper.. so if anyone happens to have pictures that would be great..

 

im not feelin it.

its up to you if you want to install it.

id just put on whatever is made for that car. OEM fitment and looks is the best.

 

Typical Jersey cars.

ever heard of buying brighter bulbs?

 

you can retrofit the is300 fogs for a whole lot more brightness...

looks off to me

 

my buddy just finishd his the other day look way better than the above pic. be ready to go thru some dremel cutter wheels but not all that hard,u will have to cut away some of the metal behind the fog light its little bit taller than the eg fogs that way u can adjust the fogs. good luck.

 

thanks didnt know that fitment behind the bumper was that tight that you have to cut away..
