Ok been through two pairs of fog lights in the past year.

OVER IT!!

Is there a way to replace the black insert part of the fog lights? I searched tons of places and cant even find a correct name for the part.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

 

yeah make your own lens out of something other than glass, like lexan.

 

Yeah ive done that before...it ends up bubbling up
Im looking to just say f**k the fog lights and try and replace it to stock.
Dont want to spend any more money on lights

 

lamin-x makes 20 mil clear protective films cut for your fogs. use that if you decide to get another set.

they also have a 40 mil material but i don't know what the story is with that...might want to call, but 20 mil should protect you pretty well.

 

Or just stop driving on peoples asses.

 

The black piece you're talking about is part of the bumper cover, but you could make your own piece out of metal and epoxy it in there.

 

Yeah, I talked to honda...they dont sell that part. Gotta buy the whole bumper haha.
I guess the place I bought my grill from has a grill for the fog area...but that also comes in a package deal. Im going to see if they could be nice enough to just sell me the fog pieces. Thanks for all the advice!

 

or place the lights on the roof.. I 2nd the Lamin-X

 

If I knew someone would have wanted them I just cut them out of my bumper, but I cut them out using a dremmel and a 1/8" bit.

So they would have been smaller than the hole because you remove some material when you cut them that way.

It seems strange no one makes a grille to fit over the lights, like they do on Subaru's .

 

what place is this?

 

Does the Lamin-X film bubble after the fogs are on for too long?....also will it bubble if you put HID's in the fog lights from the heat?...I just ordered another set of fogs since mine cracked and would like to buy the Lamin-X but not if it will bubble up and look nasty

 

I thought HIDs give off LESS heat than Halogen bulbs.

 

HID won't be a problem with lamin-x, period. halogen bulbs give off most of their energy in heat. i've never had lamin-x fail in any way. i've run it on high wattage glass auxiliary lights as well as the fogs on my ms3, where i run HIR bulb every time my car is started as i drive with all forward lighting on at all times. i can't attest to using it on super high wattage halogen bulbs at idle for a LONG time, maybe lamin-x can give more info, but for regular uses it seems pretty robust.

 

sounds good thanks for the info....I will just go ahead and order a HID kit for the fogs as well as the Lamin-X film

 

I had HIDs in my fogs with the replacement fogs regular clear plastic AND yellow lamin-x and neither was affected.

 

get rid of the fog lights and put brake ducts instead

 

Mine cracked the night i got them, haha i know your pain. I went to a local shop that installs clear car bras got a sheet of that made a template and it's worked great for months. Good luck.
