anyone got pictures of your OEM fog light setup? any pictures of the foglight switch?

Right now I can't decide what to get, OEM fog's, or go with aftermarket ones, I'm looking to run the piaa ion yellow bulbs in the fogs, and most aftermarket fogs come prebulbed with something bright white or blue. I'm debating between the OEM ones, though I don't think they look flush with the rest of the headlights, the circle ones look kind of out of place to me, IMO

any advance and tips would help, thanks in advance

My switch is located in a different area on my 98.

alright thanks guys, exactly what i was looking for, is there a way to switch the positions of the hazard light and the foglight? I think i would use the foglight button more often then i would the hazard,

another thing, exactly how "easy" is this foglight installation, can anyone provide a quick walk through of everything needed, and any complications that may be encountered? thanks

oe more thing dust, how did u get that A imprint on your shift knob? haha

I'm not sure about swaping the hazard and fog light switches. Personally, I'd leave them where they are (although the sawp looks easy enough). I always have the foglight button switched on. The only time the fog lights come on is when you turn your headlights on. I think I've only use the switch maybe 3 times.

Installation is very easy. Just ask for the install instructions.

what's the difference between that shift knob, and the one that i already have? just the imprinted A on it? how much did u get it for, the buy it now price is pretty pricey, haha

My OEM shift hadle was made of plastic. The one I have now is leather with the imprinted "A". MUCH NICER!

I got mine from Warner for $45.00 about a year ago.

who is Warner? And can he get me some foglights?

Warner is a guy on ebay that a lot of people use for factory acura parts and yes he can get you fogs. I think his ebay name is moose something, if you do a search for acura fogs the chances are you will see one of his auctions for the factory ones.

Oh the hazard light button pops out very easily so if you want to change the hazard and fog button you probably can if they are the same size switch (which they appear to be) but you have to deal with moving/extending the hazard button wiring which will probably be a pain

swapping the switches is not too hard... the wirring reaches, so thats not a problem. On the switches there are "guides" that run front to back on the switch... in the dash panel there are "channels" that these "guides" fit into... in each hole they are in different places, so the switches have their respective holes. To swap the switches, these "guides" just have to be filed down so they do not stick out anymore. You could also just make new "channels" in the dash piece... I chose to modify the switches, as they are cheaper to replace if I screwed up. If you dont allow for these "channels" and "guides", the switch will not operare smoothly and the faceplate of the switch will appear warped.

okay not to sound lazy, but it seems like too much work, i thought it would be a quick swap, i think when i install, i'm going to just leave the button there, haha
