OEM style Fog's (Aftermarket Route)

So ive been reading that thread about OEM fog lights and I was liking the idea and myself being a high school student I had to find the cheapest route. Here it is.

Pilot H3 Round Fog Lights (Only $40)


Finished Pics


Head Lights and Fog Lights on*


Head Lights off, Fog Lights on*


I love them and for only $40 from the local autozone and about 1 hour of work I absolutely love them. It was very easy, I had to cut out the grill, one section from easch side. I had to mount them on there side so I could attatch them to the bottom grill. The only thing I didnt like when i finished was that the light lenses were very blue. Doesnt match the head lights.

Enjoy!

If you would like more pics of the set up, ask and I will post it up.

Comparison to OEM

Not bad, but is there anyway to get the blue circular thing around the ends?

Thats the only way to buy them, is with the blue lenses. At night you cant even tell, they r soooooo bright, and its good because they go together perfectly with my sylvania's, but during the day it is very noticable. I woke up this morning and adjusted it to my liking, I did this last night at like nine and finished by ten.

am i the only one that thinks fog lights make cl's look worse? They just dont look right on the frontend to me for some reason.

Either way, they look bright as hell, thats def a good thing, a lot of aftermarket fogs arent bright at all

I am a very proud owner of the CL. I went into the movies (Just Friends) and I came out and I noticed the fog lights were still on, it was unbelievable that the car even started. I love you CL, just dont let your tranny die.

exactly what i was thinking, it makes the front end look too cluttered. i think the car's front looks nice just how it is...personal opinion. Dont see why people are so crazy over them, esp since they really dont have much of a purpose unless you live in a swamp
