Foglight cut-out template for Base Model install

Hey,

I've purchased some OEM Honda foglights and have downloaded all the instructions for a nice DIY project. However, the only thing I'm missing are the templates for cutting the bumper properly. I guess they forgot to add them to the shipping package .

Does anyone know where to get the templates so I could print them off?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

No one has this?

Is there anyway to cut the bumper without them then?

Got these installed without template

Thank you kishore but I done this job this week-end.

If anyone is in same situation I was, even without template it's fairly easy to do.

The most important side to take care is the external side. I left half on inch at left and right side and about 1/8 on the upper and down side. I cut all with a rotary saw on a dremel. Watch out, when the saw become worn, it bite on the material so take it with 2 hand and protect other surfaces of the bumper. It happen to me, I done a 6inch scratch on the bumber ouch!

I forgot my camera when I was at garage but next time I will take some pics.

Thank you,

LF

Hello, I am the owner of a 2008 Fit Sport w/ MT. I recently had an accident and I need to replace the bumper cover. Therefore, I also need the templates to cut the holes for the foglight assembly. Could someone please scan them and send them to me?

Thank you in advance for your advice/help

Just got my lights in the mail. They look dope. Probably paint them silver to match my body colour. I also did not receive templates to cut the bumper. Could someone please upload the templates or post a link. I have been searching for the template all afternoon.

No I did not. I just cut around the bumper. If you look on the inside of the bumper when it is off you can see an outline. Cut small and if the light doesn't fit then cut more. Better to have to cut more than have already cut too much.

My lights are aftermarket. Still cannot figure out how to wire them up. It's been almost a year. They look good. But don't turn on haha

I still have a box of OEM style fogs sitting in my garage somewhere. I never even wanted to attempt the wiring. I had considered taking them to an electrical shop to get them to figure it out. Then someone on the forums was selling OEM sets for a crazy good deal so I bought those and put them on.
