Default EBAY Fog light Review

I bought some "OEM" fog lights from the user MOTOR BLVD and am very displeased with the results. I had purchased a set for my RSX and the kit was easy to put together and fit well and no problems. this kit is a nightmare. The switch doesnt fit in the bezel, the directions are non existent, they don't follow the same materials as OEM and leave much to the imagination. Normally I would ONLY buy OEM because of reasons like this, but i had heard good reviews from this seller. I don't think I'll be going back for a 3rd try for another vehicle. PICS TO FOLLOW.

I never went aftermarket with my fogs on my cars, always OEM. I've never had problems with wiring. I highly recommend to anyone who are looking to buy fogs, go buy OEMs.

Sorry to hear you have a wiring nightmare.

well its possible they aren't the same as the ones I have. my wife is an engineer and I fly for the Air Force, we aren't idiots. It was a nightmare. If i could go back in time, i would buy OEM. I still might.

No disrespec!t bro, but just because you are a flyboy doesn't make you an electrician, mechanic, or even a butcher. I bought the ebay fogs for my wife's TSX and they were about the easiest accessory I have installed to date. It may have just been the kit you purchased. Hope you get everything squared away. I love the added light output of the fog lamps. Especially after the H.I.D. conversion
