jdm fogs... k2motors or password jdm

are the fogs from each of the websites the exact same thing??? k2 motors is selling for way less but just want to make sure it isnt of inferior quality or any of that crap....and when i get them would it hurt my warranty if i get these installed somewhere other than honda? i heard honda will charge you a leg

i heard he has limited stock right now so if i were you i'll jump on it. i installed it myself earlier, took me couple of hours. very easy to follow instructions so u will not be lost. there's also a DIY somewhere in the lighting section with pictures.

k2 motors is the better choice if you have a 2006. I went from OEM harness to the k2motors harness for personal preference. And I don't miss the fog indicator in the dash.

I wouldn't buy those. I paid $500 for my fogs (from the dealer installed) and had one of the lenses break. I made an appointment to have the lens replaced, When I got there for my appointment I noticed the other lens was broken. I now have two broken fogs in less than a year. Thankfully I made the manager agree to remove the fogs and refund my money. I think I'ma go PIAA instead. Good luck.

What about the holes they cut in the bumper? Are you going to keep the bezels to hide them? A small light like some of the 2" projector fogs Hella makes would go in there and you could mount them behind the OEM oval bezel.

the hardest part of the install is wiring in the cabin.... i don't think the oem or k2 harness would be any easier or difficult...

it's a pain to remove that fuse cover thingy, and u need to remove that for either harness.
