Is this a decent fog light kit?

Is this a decent foglight kit? It says 'OEM' but that doesn't mean that it is. Seems like a decent price to me... but want to make sure it isn't crap.

My girlfriend bought me some off ebay that said OEM and they were hardly OEM... it only came with 2 harnesses instead of the OEM 3 with I didn't find out about until honda was doing the install... thank goodness it was one of my boys so he only charged me a little bit... I ordered a kit from MIT on here for 215 shipped that was REALLY genuine honda fogs... but here is the link from the ones I got... If I were you I would just bargin with him to be safe... goodluck with it though

When you get ebay fogs make sure you buy some lamin-x film to put over them bc they crack.

So are the 'K2' ones that I have shown in the first post better, purely because they have what looks to be 3 harnesses on them?

The reason I am thinking of going this route is we have 2 Si's and don't want to have to buy 2 OEM kits!

K2 are better fogs, yes. The harness that comes with the K2 is functional. The harness included for the others tends to be unusable without some extra funky splicing.

In fact, the harness included for the K2 fogs is superior to OEM in my personal opinion. I went from OEM to K2.

Hmmm, that's good to know... thank you. So you have the K2 fogs as well or did you go OEM?

I paid full stinking price for the OEM's, but I prefer the flexibility of the K2 harness, so I yanked the OEM harness and installed the K2.

Question while we're on the topic of fogs...

I am most likely going to be getting an Si Coupe or an EX Coupe in the next couple of months. If I get it with the fog lights, can you use all the existing wiring if you want to upgrade to something else later on? Also what kind of switch is it (rocker switch, push button, does it have a light?) and where is it mounted?

Thanks in advance!
