Going to install /w the civic switch for now, wire in an OEM switch later.
Is your car heather mist? That actually looks REALLY good, didn't expect them to come out like that.

Thanks. :)

My car is signet silver, the paint is very close to it. I would have used signet silver paint, but dont have the money right now. Later I'll get a clear lens pair and paint it the proper color.

Hey guys, last night my civic fog lights stop working. I was driving back home and decided to stop at 7-Eleven for a quick drink. When I switch my headlights on and push the OEM fog switch, I realize that its not lighting up. Is there any circuit fuse in the car that could have blown? Could the civic fog relay be bad?

^ check k like johnson said. And if a fuse had blown it would have affected something else too such as your radio or lights depending on which slot you used.

this is a great write up... I jus gotta question on the fuse box when I wired it up... I wired it up to the ambers I couldnt tell which one was to the radio... I blew a fuse and put a bigger one in but i would like the freedom of being able to turn them on without having to turn my ambers on... do you mabey have a better pic? or do I jus need to try the other ones? lol

I Installed mine on Sunday, it was a little haphazard. I was meeting a friend at their house, they weren't home yet, so me and a friend who was with me just installed em in about 20 minutes. I REALLY need to get some L brackets, the fogs are not useful as of yet. Also, the wiring under the hood will be re-wired later and hidden. I just wanted to get them on and see how they look. So, here they are:

I may go over them later with a glossy clear cote.

the one to the radio is the bottom left slot as shown on the pic on the first post.
