Carri JDM fog replica wiring question - Honda Prelude Forum

jfh0922 · 04-16-2009, 05:31 PM

I've wanted JDM fogs for years but just couldn't bring myself to pay the going rate for them. Then I saw a replica JDM fog set for sale on ebay for cheap so I figured... sure why not?

Came in the mail today. "CARRI" is the brand name on the box. Some made in china knock off but the quality of materials seems really good. Even comes with bulbs. Looks just like the real thing to me!

I might order a genuine fog switch from Honda tho... (the supplied switch is actually a really good attempt at mimicking the real switch if you're not picky.)

Anywho, let me cut to the chase. I was wondering if anyone else has installed these on their Lude because I'm not sure how to hook up the last bit of wiring into the car. The kit doesn't come with directions. I've already downloaded the wiring instructions for Honda's USDM fogs off of HandA but the connectors for this replica aftermarket set are different. Anyone know the deal with hooking these into the fuse box or whatever?

I'll give you this vital information under one condition. You have to send your girlfriend/sister who ever that is in you signature to come like my rims. K

So are the tools we need from authentic dm fogs the same as replica jdm
Fogs?

For those of u who have purchased the replicas, what did you have to buy that wasnt included in the box? My replicas came in today and i dont want to start installation without having all the necessary parts.

thanks Shimee. But where would i use that?

jflipwa · 04-18-2009, 12:59 AM

I'm assuming on the fog mounts.

I simply pushed the pin connectors out of my factory usdm fog clips. Pushed the negatives together and they locked. Taped them up tight, then took the white wire on the fog lights. Seperated the connector a bit and pushed them together and taped them up and I was done. Works perfect, looks good, functional (not really). They don't get hot, and def wont melt your housings like everyones saying. I had mine on for an hr and they were just warm

thanks for the link. awesome writeup. the replica fogs look and work great. i would def suggest buying them if you're in the market for JDM fogs. comes with everything except for the 4 clips and screws mentioned earlier.

JDM fogs make my girl very happy...

sorry, but alloy rim licking is an exclusive privilege.
