Option 1: Superglue
Option 2: Bondo
Option 3: Gasket Maker
Option 5: JB Weld
Option 6: a couple of small screws

Choose wisely!

Put it in place of the dash dimmer switch. Not sure why anyone wouldn't want the dimmer in the brightest position anyway, so just tape the dimmer in the brightest position and tie-wrap it behind the dash.

Or buy the little faceplace to hold the fog switch, lol.

And Tuff fill would work better than bondo :P

And what about option 4?

You don't get a faceplate, there is no faceplate for the JDM/replica switch. The USDM fogs came with a faceplate and an extra slot for a fog switch in place of the little pocket under the lights. (the JDM switch will not fit there)

The way the JDM/replica switch is made is to replace one of three buttons: the sunroof, cruise, or dimmer.

I'd google it, or search ebay. Its the same one as whats in your car, except instead of that small cubbie hole the switch is mounted there

Refer to this:

JDM Fog Light Switch and Switch Plug

Oh nevermind then, sorry.

eolife22 · 09-11-2009, 02:38 PM

I'd say dimmer replacement is the best choice...

If you purchase the OEM Honda foglights on-line from places like Manchester Motorsports, it comes with a switch case that replaces the factory one. It has 5 slots for your switches. Just FYI.
