South Jersey CL

-you can put the button for them wherever you want, in the 97s the button is on the left (if it came equipped with them) if it doesnt have foglights, consequently no switch.

-as far as placement of the actual fog lights, they usually do on each side of the lower grille, but i supppose you can put them wherever you want. davzilla integrated them into his bumper, right under the corners

^Actualy, the 97s fog light wireing is on the right. The Heated seat button is on the left.

I don't have a button on mine either. It's just the wiring.

South Jersey CL

oh, i thought i saw pics with the button on the left, oh well

Mike86

97 w/ factory fog setup. Switch is on the left. The only thing I can figure is models with heated seat have fog switch on right, models without like mine have it on the left.

ive been trying to find out how to do HID on the fogs too. i take lots of trips to sf and it gets foggy up there. the fogs i have dont really cut it. i should just get big ass spot lights that cops have and mount those as fogs

Correct, the heated seat switches on a premium CL are on the left for driver use, the fog light button is wired to the right hand passenger position, here's a pic from when I swapped in a new console

shogo2.3cl

heated seats and fog light buttons? wtf the 99 model must be the bootey ghetto edition even your center consoles look way diff than mine

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

That's a 97 center console it is different

South Jersey CL

the 98-99 console is different. better to, imo.

Yeah, having both I like the 98 a lot better.

For some reason I like the '97 console better. More simple and less wood. ALOT easier to take out the head unit too.

BTW, those swirls and markings on the '97 trim that Mike posted looks alot like my old woodgrain radio trim piece...

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

I've worked on both, and I prefer the 97, i was so scared to snap that stupid wood grain on the 98

shogo2.3cl

about a year ago my car got broken into and they just destroyed that wood grain radio bezel in my center console. took me forever to try and find a replacement finally i found out about the accords and got a black one for 5 bucks at a junk yard.
That whole radio bezel is so weak and adds no security at all.

the person stole my radio and i had the faceplate in my house...

Emran247

Anhedonia

hes from VA, theyre real hard about there driving laws too... good luck


quick question.. im going to wire in some fogs rather shortly too. real fogs. the fog here gets really, really, really bad. i was looking for the button in my car the other day, or whereit would be if i had them..



uhhh where is it! lol.. i know i have the 98 and its different then the 97.. aside from the blank next to my hazards, i dont see shit.

On the 98-99s the fog light switch goes opposite the hazzard switch. Just pry out the knock out plate to the right of the clock nd there should be the connector. As far as the switch, the 94-97 accord switch will work nd i think even the 90-93's are the same switch.

Top right where that black piece that looks like it should be a switch, there's a wiring harness connected to the back of it

I always keep my cc at 69 deg too

Anhedonia

haha alright i was thinking thats were it went. and yeah, 69 seems to be the most comfortable temp in my car lol

if that's were the fog switch is.. heated seat switch? are they prewired? like i could just get the element and it would be all good?

Emran247

Someone should do a DIY on Foglight

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

I would have, but I reused all the stock wiring, cuz my car already had them

South Jersey CL

you dont know the half of it. my friend and i got pulled over for doing 42 in a 25, and we were pulled over RIGHT BEFORE the 35mph limit sign. VA is such a prude state

westsaeed

hey are those the stock Fog lights or after market?

97BlackAckCL

iTrader: (6)

Those are not stock fog lights, he bought them off of ebay, these are the aftermarkets

CB9-cl

i agree x100, but why didnt you???

i wanna do this, yellow running lights+yellow fogs =

incredulous1

too much cop attention IMO. but do what ya want. id love to do this if i knew i wouldnt get hassled all the time.

on1wheel01

wow still surprised to see this thread. So far with my 10k's in both cars no attention from cops. Think I am gonna either do 8's or 10's for me fogs. I just gotta quit spendin money on the audio part. I like the round look of the car right ^ there

e92owner

why don't you get 4300K? they're the best for visibility. less eye strain at night and they also light the road up better if the road is dark.
