Where are you getting your fog light kit from and how much is it costing you?

getting the kit from the yarra honda, $400. picking it up tomorrow :)

I rang around a few other dealers and they quoted similar prices. Yarra is the closest to work so i'll just pop in there and pick em up.

How about the one selling from Ebay? any idea? are they just plug and play or need to alter? is anyone has the euro repair guide for how to install the foglight?

haven't done a 06 yet but the earlier ones you remove the bumber fit the lights and the the covers run the wiring behind the bumper past the air filter box where you have to take the back off the fuse box and fit 2 wires into 2 of the connecters ,plug in and fit the relay next to the fuse box. then you remove the steering column covers and change the indicator stork/light switch.

Don't even bother with the kits on ebay - they are hit and miss getting them to wire up properly. Unless you are an auto electrician it is a waste of time.

just finished installing the fog lights - took a couple of hours. the hardest bit i found was removing the bumper bar and the two covers on bumpers where the fog lights go into. the bumper and covers are quite fiddly. those darn screw clips are a b*tch to come off - ended up breaking one cause it just wouldnt come out.

I found the fuse box/wiring and stalk quite easy to fit. yes, stalk, Honda said they dont provide the button type. wierd, cause at the dealership they had a euro with the switch next to the VSA switch. anyways, i dont mind, happy either way.

all in all the job wasn't hard to do at all.

Would you have the Honda part number of the kit you fitted?

I can check the invoice tonight and see if they are listed on it. There we're three seperate boxes that each had their own part code to make the whole fog light kit assembly.

You need to be careful that Honda supply the correct parts for the 2006 model as this kit is different to the previous models. Honda first gave me a 2003 kit thinking that all the part codes we're the same, good thing they are only down the road from my work.

is there a way pfd's can be posted? i've scanned the doco and happy to post it up for anyone who may be interested.

.pdf's i mean ;)
