SEE POST #8 FOR DIY
Saved myself 75$ from buying the housing
Ref: Looks just like this, for 75$!?!? I said **** that.

After 15 minutes of dremeling, the ebay jdm fog light housing fits perfect, even the screw hole is an exact fitment.
**NOTE** THIS WAS A TRIAL RUN ON MY BROKEN SET, BEFORE I WORK ON THE UNBROKEN SET THAT's ON THE CAR RIGHT NOW

Also, the ebay jdm fogs do not come with the cut lines like the real jdm ones do. so you have to figure it out.
just thought id throw this out there for those of you who want to save some $!

(what it will look like; trial vs jdm ebay)
There's actually lines on the bezel itself, if you look at the pictures where I taped off to show you how i'm cutting it -- there's preexisting lines in the plastic that I'm just following. It looks like in the euro bezel, all they did was just that - cut the provided lines out.

I also added a weatherstripping on the bottom side of the lip to avoid a little bit of scraping

thx guys!
I had my first scrape today, at low speeds, the weatherstripping already came off
. so don't get it. it was woth the 5$ try though! lip is still mint since it protected that scrape lol
yeap, I did the same exact thing about 2 years ago (or so) for chyllintsx, when I installed his JDM lip. Too bad he later had a hit'n'run...Good DIY :thumbsup: I'll add it to the DIY/FAQ Menu.
(just had to change the title a bit and move it to the DIY forum)
Thanks again for the write up! You got reps for it.
