Recently saw an Odyssey with the fog lights at night and it looked hot. Now I kinda want them. Now OEM fogs from honda are 300+, however I have seen kits on Ebay for like 150ish.

Has anyone installed these themselves? my only worry is mounting them. Does the vent in the bumper just pop out or is cutting going to be involved?

edit, just saw on Handaaccessories.com for 240.

The page you saw the fog lights at for $240 has instructions.

Just saw it. Looks like cutting is required. If I do end up getting them I'll have to bite the bullet and let the dealer install.

Our '05 EX has fog lights but don't know if they were dealer-installed or factory-installed. I've seen others with black covers (vents ?) so I would think those covers are removable...

I installed them in my '08, and there is NO CUTTING required, for 08-10 years.

The plastic snaps off and the new fogs screw in.

See the 08-10 install instructions here; See Step 50!

The fogs have been AWESOME to have, they do light up more of the road and help greatly at night. They should be standard IMO.

Here is my DIY for installing the eBay fogs on my 08. The fogs are of very good quality as good as the OEM. However, the install will require some custom work. Take a look.

The fogs can be installed by a DIY person with minimal skill. Plus, you get great step by step directions with the fogs, or you can download them. Don't be afraid of some of the steps, even like pulling off the bumper cover or cutting for the 05-07 models. It is crazy easier than it sounds. It is shocking how easy the entire bumper cover comes off. Shocking really.

One thing, ensure you properly aim the fogs after you install them. If you don't do this, they will not help much. They are not pre-aimed. You have to adjust them once you install them.

Don't be afraid of this install, it is relatively easy.
