92'-93' Tweeter fog light switch

Well.. I just ordered my OEM fog light switch from my honda dealer. I Pull the left side tweeter cover off and see no cut out for the switch. That's cool i was expecting that from reading the forums. But just out of curiousity I pulled the RIGHT side tweeter cover off and BAM..!! The freaking cut-out is there!! I guess they put RHD tweeter cover or maybe i'm wrong.

You're lucky that your dealer had the part, not all of them do, I had already tried but I kinda like my JDM center console switch better.

If it needs those mounting screw holes then maybe you'll have to grab a cover from the dealer as well, pretty funny that you have RHD ones.

The tweeter cover that fits the switch on left-hand drive cars is a special cover with a molded indent. The cutout marking you pictured is present on all USDM right side tweeter covers, and it's there to be cutout on right-hand drive cars that have an indented switch moulding installed. I believe there are pictures of this in the "EDM Parts" thread.

edit. found the picture


Basically, Honda made only one type of tweeter cover for the right side and two types for the left side for years 92-93. The matching left side cover to be used with the fog switch came only in left-hand drive markets (US, Canada, etc.) and the right-hand drive markets (EU, Japan, etc.) would use that cutout and the switch would install inside an additional plastic piece and then be put in the tweeter cover cutout.

So the tweeters sit perpendicular to the dash pointing away from the driver? That's fail.

They actually sit at such an angle where they point into the cabin.

Small angle, but it does help. It just unfortunate that are place there and not on the other side pointed right into the cabin.

Yeah, and it's too bad they put the front speakers at the bottom of the door.

My ankles don't have ears!

Ya but the freq's coming from the 6.5's aren't as directional as the ones coming from the tweeters.

just be careful, there are some people here that might accuse you for selling items for too high of a price.

Just ignore them. This switch is easily worth $200.

Yep, and there will be people that will say that they bought on on ebay for $50.

Yeah, I wish all of us can get lucky like that.

The switch is $200-$250 mate.

Except he stated that he's fully aware of the items "value" that some people place on it, and believes it's outrageous. To be ripped off requires that one party is completely unaware of an item's "value" and the other party is aware and will not divulge the information to the seller.
