Are factory fogs still available? - Honda Prelude Forum

Preyluder · 02-16-2004, 08:48 PM

I heard it through the grapevine that factory foglights are not still being produced for 4th gen Preludes. Is this true, if not, where can I find some? Are there any good aftermarket ones that resemble OEM ones?

I got one of the last two honda had.

You will have to buy from ebay, find them at a junk yard, or straight from Japan

Password JDM might have some (no switch or relay)... The switch for the 92-93's are nearly impossible to find. I haven't seen any aftermarket fogs that resemble ours.

Like they said above, check out Ebay, or our newest (and worst) thread titled "Ebay Heads-Up" , cuz someone will prolly put it up there as soon as its listed...

my piaa 004x fog lights are pretty much the same size and resemble the oem.

hey how bright are those things midnitemyst? do they help high and low beam light?

MidNiteMysT · 02-17-2004, 09:10 AM

i dont even remember how much light it produces anymore because i still have to install mine. i had them installed, but i took em off a while ago and didnt reinstall them for a while. hopefully, i will be installing them within a few weeks.

I have a brand new 92-93 fog lights switch , brand new in package. What could i get for it if i were to sell it?

Rcih

lude_vtec · 02-17-2004, 01:12 PM

I'll buy it if you want to sell it... is it the whole tweeter cover with the switch, or just the actual switch?

ibanezeros · 02-17-2004, 02:11 PM

i need a switch too, and a relay for that matter if anyone has these???

Charlie, how could I order them straight from Japan? I'd go for that if I knew where to get them from. Of course they'd probably be like 600 bucks after shipping huh?

MidniteMyst, be sure to post some pics up once you get them installed, I wanna see them please.

Also, are they blue? They look like they'd be blue when they're on. Or are they amber, which is the color of the OEM fogs correct?

EDIT: Also, if you get the ACTUAL OEM fogs for the 4th gen, does installation require you to take the entire front end off? That's what my dad told me he and my mechanic had to do when they installed my moms a couple years back (she has a '92 si too... pretty cool mom, eh?

)... Is any of that true?

You can get it from the dealer but you'll have to ask for fogs lights from (92-95?) civics. They are the same fog lights that our preludes came with from the factory.

Preyluder · 02-17-2004, 05:59 PM

^Eh, I'd like some clarification on that, no offense to you man. Anyone able to back that up?

True but that will do you no good. It'll give you the same housing but the bracket will not fit our cars.

You gotta pull the front bumper off and the install is a real PITA... I just did it this past weekend.

obviously you need to modify somethings a bit. piaa didnt make it specifically for 4th preludes.... youll have to modify some stuff a bit and they are pretty small just like the oem ones.

Preyluder · 02-17-2004, 07:35 PM

What about the color Midnite? How bright are they? Be sure to post up when you get them back on and give me some details. Or pm me something.
