Swapping from USDM/CDN to JDM fogs

Right now I have USDM/CDN fogs installed. I ordered my JDM fogs/housings about 2 months ago and I'm assuming they should arrive soon. I didn't order the harness for the JDM fogs though. Can I just remove the current fogs/housing from the bumper and just plug the JDM one in using the USDM/CDN wiring and stalk? Thanks.

i was gonna ask the same thing..
JDM Accord Euro-R Fog Lamp Assembly and the USDM ones look so similar, but boom plus toys said the JDM Accord Euro-R Fog Lamp Covers won't fit with USDM fog assembly.
i already have USDM fogs and i dont want to buy the whole JDM fog kit,
i guess i have to try to swap the covers myself.

I heard the JDM fogs won't fit into the USDM housings, that's why I ordered both the fogs and the housings.
I was just wondering if I can use the JDM fogs with the existing USDM wire harness and stalk without any modifications. Is it as simple as removing the USDM fogs and plugging the JDM ones in?

first off you ordered the right stuff. you need both the jdm fogs and the jdm housings. you can not use the usdm housing for jdm fogs.

now about switching fogs. you can use everything you already have. the jdm fogs and the usdm fogs use the same bulbs so you can just take the bulbs out of your usdm fogs put them in the jdm fogs and then hook them back up. you dont need anynew wiring.

Thanks. That's what I was hoping to hear.
