Default 05 Civic OEM foglight install help needed

Before you rip me a new hole, I already checked the FAQ's. I found on the FAq's the soldering of yellow/red wire for EXISTING OEM's to stay on with headlights and Ebay AFTERMARKET fogs install pictures for what looks like 01-03 Civic with round bumper style foglights . Now here's my question, I'm interested in purchasing OEM (or original OEM style) CLEAR LENS foglight Kit for an 05 Civic EX Coupe(like Honda makes; YELLOW colored foglights were never made or were an original option from what I hear directly from Honda for a 04/05 Civic coupe, just relaying what I heard directly from Honda. I really don't want the yellow or smoked lens style which I see tons of on Ebay and I'm not talking about bumper ROUND style (like shown in the Ebay foglights install FAQ's) but I need the bottom left and right sideways teardrop style (to the far right bottom of bumper directly above the 09 on dated pictured 08/09/2009)that you have to cut out the bumper on, on a 04 or 05 civic coupe. Picture of my front bumper posted below! Here's my dilemma: does anyone know of a good company on Ebay or otherwise (besides Honda that charges $370 for OEM clear foglights!!!)that I can get these from? Have you guys had any success/good luck from an Ebay company or other company that provides the 3 grounding bolts/ relay,mounting brackets, wire ties, 3 wiring harnesses,little fuse box, and OEM switchfor a 04/05 Civic EX? I already checked out some of the clear JDM styles on Ebay but can't find one company that provides all of the parts I just listed. Another problem, I can't find an INSTALL MANUAL on 04/05 OEM sideways teardrop style foglights, just Ebay aftermarket that uses the switch next to cruise control. I printed the 14 page, 65 step instruction page for 01-03 HOnda Civic round style bumper foglights off of the FAQ page (copyr 2002)but heard that ones I'm interested in (OEM's clear lens) have to mount the on/off OEM switch in the MIDDLE CONSOLE next to the 12v outlet. My other 3 cruise, moonroof, and power mirrors(next to left of steering wheel) are already taken and I don't want to lose them so the middle console OEM switch is my only option. Does anyone have a cutting bumper template (not a huge deal) and ESPECIALLY the instructions for installing the 04/05 HONDA OEM or Ebay OEM style (not Ebay aftermarket) clear lens sideways teardrop style foglights made by Honda or OEM Style company? I def. want the OEM black dash switch and all of the needed parts. I see everything on the FAQ's foglight intstalls but what I'm looking for and I already used the search. Any help/link from other source/ downloads would be appreciated! Also do OEM STYLE foglights w/OEM switch like sold on Ebay use the EBAY aftermarket installation (like on here) or OEM install which is different, I also need to know that. Thanks!

dude... you need to put some paragraphs in there...

instructions -- > http://handa-accessories.com/civext01.html#fog

all ebay kits are pretty much the same but you will want to buy an oem switch at your local dealership. should be under $10

Funny, yeah that's what I meant to say. Thanks a bunch, of course they're out of stock on my year 05EX, just because I want to buy them. Can the install manual for 04/05's http://www.handa-accessories.com/civic/05fogs.pdf
be added to the FAq's? (next to the other 2 links for foglights)There's nothing on there currently that pertains to INSTALLING new OEM's or anything for 04/05 civics. That'd be cool. Thanks.
