fog lights and rattle

I am going to purchase some fog lights for my TSX through the net and was wondering if anyone has done their own installation. I looked at the istalllation instructions and it looks to be just time consuming. ALSO there was some posts regarding noise from the window area of the tsx> I had ther creak and took the car to the dealer. They repositioned the A pillar pading and the noise is gone , so far so good for one week.

There have been some posts on this in the past. Try a search. To sum it up, I put my foggies in myself. It was pretty easy. Just follow the instructions. It should take anywhere from 1-3 hours depending on how good you are. Get some superwhite H11 bulbs. They will come pretty close to matching the HIDs. It looks really good. They have them on ebay or order some from Hoen. Good luck!

I bought my fog light kit from a board member and installed the Hoen bulbs as well. The instllation is not hard if you follow the insturctions. I installed my by myself since it was too cold in the garage for the wife at the time. The hardest parts for me were the clips in the bumper, the fuse box under the hood, and the column switch. I have large hands which made it more difficult. However, the install is definitely something you can do with a couple of hours, common tools, and some patience. A few beers might help as well.
