06 07 Accord Fog Lights
Ive been looking all over ebay and all over amazon for a pair of oem fog lights off of a 2006-2007 Honda Accord and cant seem to find any. If anyone has some for sale or knows anyone selling any or ANYTHING, please let me know.

are you trying to incorporate the accord fogs on your CL?
because if you are, the OEM's are VERY expensive. why would you want to use VERY EXPENSIVE parts, when aftermarket parts for 50 bucks does the same?
p.s. Everyone uses the aftermarket fogs from ebay. it comes with everything needed. wiring and incabin switch.
if you go OEM, you'll have to purchase each fog separately, in addition to the wires and incabin fog switch, which means $$$$$$$$$$

Yeah I just ordered some off of ebay. I don't know i was looking at the wrong year and wasn't seeing the right style never mind. But I do need to find a switch. I've been looking and it seems the fog light switch off of an Accord looks the best and works the best. I just need some pointers on how to wire that ish up.

Please post a link on where on ebay to get the fogs. And is there a wiring kit needed to covert the factory power output to the aftermarket.

Okay so... update on this if anyone is concerned..
I finally got my fogs in the mail and I was surprised as to how much bigger they were then my stock road lamps. They are considerably larger which is great. I was worried the plastic housing for the Accord Fogs would be flimsy and crappy, but they turned out to be very thick and sturdy. They came with the a harness and a switch as well as cheap 55w halogen bulbs. When I get some more money put aside I am going to get some Morimoto 35w 5k bulbs to install. Wondering if the harness is trustworthy or should I make a new one? It has an inline fuse which is nice. But just wondering if it is junk or not. I was excited to try and test fit them to see where id want to cut them but it was -5 degrees out this morning so the most I could do was get the road lamp off and out of the car to try and draw up where Id need to cut the housing of the accord fogs. I froze my fingers purple trying to get them out but I got one out and I drew up a template of the stock road lamp to overlay on the accord fogs so I could make some incisions. I don't want to make ant final cuts until I can go out and test fit the fogs to know for sure.
Also after getting them, I noticed some of the screws were chrome and kind of beat up so I went into work to buy some stainless screws and ended up buying everything in stainless to replace the screws the accord fogs came with and only ended up paying like $3 for everything. That way they wont rust and I will end up painting the heads black so you can't see them as well.. (I'm attentive to the details).
(Sorry I do not know how to properly upload the pictures I wanted them to upload big within the body of the post but I do not know how to do that.)

I have not been able to start cutting anything yet as it's too cold but it is supposed to warm up here in the next few days and I ll be sure to post some pics of the cuts and the install. Got a flat tire so I had to deal with that shit first.

The more people document their own DIY projects the more it adds value to our community. This is especially important as our community is small in general. In turn other members can recreate these mods on the own cars with the added benefit of an online instructional reference.
