Do you mean fogs that will lool like the factory fogs, (which don't exist) or fogs that look like they could be a factory part?

How much you selling them, and how well do they fit?

Don't tease us like that!! Are you planning on making some or sumthin? If they are ones that will look as nice in color as the PIAA 1700 and fit the bumbers of the 99-01 perfectly. I would be interested in them. I say a fair price would be about 300-350.

I'd be interested but since PIAA makes driving lights almost the same size for $200, I'd have to say E-DUB is smoking crack.
I'd only go that high if you made them yourself and they were already adapted to fit right into the bumper w/o modifications.

Even if they fit exactly...you still have to cut out...that's just too shallow to fit a light.

HEHEHE.. only sometimes.

They have to fit perfectly. No Modifications.

300-350 installed with all of the hardware etc.. Since there isn't one out there yet, maybe we can motivate someone to do it no?

300 at most for just the 2 lights and they would have to be clear lens with a bright mirror reflector to match the Highbeam light.

Both harnasses, relays, fuse link, and bracket was under $100.00. Ordered from http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com. I used the EX sedan, not the coupe harnass.

$300? Are you kidding? There are people here willing to pay $465 to make the amber in their tails clear! If you could come up with a clean fog that filled out the side "vents", you could make a mint off 50% of the people on this board. (Me included.)

Don't fall into the trap of "How much will they pay?". Instead ask what is the value added that my product adds worth? I think the finest lights on the market are going to sell for around $250 - $300. Even the HID's are coming down now. Yours may be wonderful and fill a niche. But if you over price them, others will be enticed into the market and the big guys will squeeze you out.

Best of luck, we're all pulling for you.

Hard to believe, eh? Of course, now that '02 comes with clear tails, you guys will be able to sell your amber tails to them so their cars can be "modified" as well...

Thumbs up

$300 - $350, but they must fit perfectly and look "stock". I don't mind cutting the bumper either. Put me down for a set!

I would like a pair too. I would say anything between 250 - 300 for the pair plus the harness and the switch sounds like a good deal.

It would be nice if you could show us some pics of the fog lights first.

Has everyone seen this thread in the gallery?

Factory fitting fogs from Honda. I can't believe it, from all the attempts with PIAA, Catz, Inspire, Odyssey, CL, The 2001 Honda Accord Coupe Optional Equipment Fogs look like they came right from the factory.

(wonder if we can change the bulb to yellow...)

That's what I m trying to do...
However....OEM fog bulb look little funky...
It looks like 9005(standard low beam bulb)
but it's not... it's little small and fitting is different too...
I've tried to get amber bulb..but I couldn't even find A/M bulb that look exactly same...
So I guess I will have to stick with that bulb....

All you guys have too much money on your hands. I won't pay no $300 for no halogen lights. They aren't even bright I bet. If they where HID, yeah I'd pay $300-350 for them, hells yea. But not for regular ones.

I am also starting a Help BDIMC modify his TL fund. You can all contribute with $5. please send e-mail to chansing@dotplanet.com

Any 02 TLs? wanna modify there tails? with my amber ones? I won't even charge you, just a swap is good.
