rear fogs tend to only be on one side. thats why i think they're lame. it just looks like you have a tail light out or something.

No, I have OEM USDM tail lights. I just changed light bulbs to LED.

If you want to sell your old tail light that has fog light on the left, please let me know. If the price is in the range that I can effort, I might take it.

Thanks,

Yes, left taillight still has the rear foglight. Bought them from Honda Taiwan.

I think it's lame for people who just leave it on when it's not needed. The rear fog isn't for 'looks', it's for you're own safety when visibility is low (downpour in broad daylight, snowstorm white-out, or dense fog conditions). It helps other drivers to see approximate speed of traffic ahead of themselves and hopefully slowdown and maintain a safe following distance..........and also to annoy tailgaters.......

i agree it has a function, and it's silly looking if you leave them on all the time.

oh sidenote. where'd you get that cool trim tool?

Light Switch

Would like to know if you have the honda part number of the switch used for your ambient lighting, as we do not have it in our country and it not available here and I really like what you did to your car and would like to order it in the US, Thanks.

Zalthras: Any knowledge of which bulb size the turn signals are? They're not the same as the US Fit.

I'm digging this thread from the grave because I would like to thank the original poster for showing us how to take apart the boot area. I needed to see these steps to do an amp/sub installation and these pictures were invaluable in helping me figure out how to hide my wiring and add some sound absorbing foam directly to the chassis and to the trim pieces. While I didn't eliminate the rattle completely, I have a better understanding of this process and how remarkably easy it is to yank out those panels. Thank you sir!
