A photo op and a chance to meet other a-ziners sounds like a pretty sweet gig to me. Install day would be sweet... if only i had something to install lol

I'm pretty handy, and do all the installs on my car myself.
I'm about to install a system, which includes running the wires and building a box.

I've never done a fog light install, but reading the threads i'm pretty confident in doing them.

who wants to be my first guinea pig?

Let me see if I can find a nice set of glass Accord fogs. I'm also debating about how to wire them in.... with the existing switch and have them turn on with the integrated fogs... or install that separate switch...

What do you think?

if you have them with the existing switch, the fogs in the headlight will still light up.
personally, I dont like the fogs in the headlights.
I would wire them up to another switch to have them independent.

How does that sound?

I guess that having them independent makes sense. I would just have to wire them so they kick off with the high beams.

As much as we knock the integrated fogs, they are pretty effective at their current location.

Shouldn't the one who is actually performing labor expect beer to be purchased?

I'll look around. It would be nice to have before I go on a one month business trip. I'll buy them first, then talk beer.
