50% of people say it is easy....I don't know why. I am in the other 50% of people who think it is a pain in the ass mod. It was time consuming for me. Perhaps I am a perfectionist. I meshed the grilles and put HIDs in there too......Don't get me wrong it was worth the effort 100% and looks soooo much better, I love it. Just be prepared to break a sweat and your back.

Yeah thankst to Xplicit this mod wasnt that hard at all, just time consuming considering that we didnt have the right eqiupment to mount the fogs, he still did a REALLY good job on them. Added 10000k Hids with independent stock fogs so now we're running with the fogs only. Great Mod.... BTW thanks bro for the help as usual =]

I would love to try this mod. I am a newb at all this and I hardly have any tools at home to do this. I am going to try this mod though. Could you guys assist me through this. I'll propbably start by ordering the fogs off of ebay. From the look of things this looks a hard cause i'm a little confuse with the wiring even though I've been looking at this thread for over an hour. hehe Thanks

I think the hardest part will be to actually mount the fog to the bumper I havent seen to much detail on that, just it placed on the bumper. Please somebody get more detail on that part. Thanks

after doing the mod, i learned that it wasnt hard at all, it took a little time, but the outcome was amazing. the Accord fogs look OEM on maddsiick's SSM TL. te wiring was pretty simple too. me and him decided to run the fogs 2 ways on the car. we can run boh the top and bottom (accord fogs) independently w/o the headlights on. and we can run it with te accord fogs and the headlights on. it was a mod worth the time. i would recommend it to anyone with the time on thier hands. its a little tricky, but when you know what your doing, then its simple.

i did this mod on maddsiick's car over the past summer and i wanted to do it on mine aswell, just wanted to see if anyone had a complete write-up on it so i can do mine faster =]

+1. I have the factory accord lights still in the box in my garage. I'm not scared of the wiring, I'm more curious as to what you all used to mount the fog lights to the bumper itself. I have the A-Spec kit as well. Is there any need to trim that? It doesn't look like it from the pics, but I'd like to be certain.

You have to pull the lip off first if you want to try to fit the fog shrouds down there.
