This could be the solution for people who don't have fog lights. :twisted: 8-)

LOL Nitin, I hope not. I did it purely because there was too much going on in the main headlight unit.

I intend to but the US Spec fog lights and wire that to the alarm's timed output so when I unlock the car at night, it will put the foglights on for 20 secs (or when I close the door). Similar to what new cars do now. :D

Hey all.

Well, a day late but just picked up the Prelude from the bodyshop. She has had the rot from the arches cut out and repaired. They were not new pattern parts - he just used new metal.

Can't find the before but here is the after

Before - the rusty bits

Cheers.

@ Gorgon - hope you sort it mate.

@ Rob - cheers. It ate a bit into my fund for US eBay yellow fog lights but next is to tart up the wheels, rocker cover and wiper arms.

I will attack ebay when I get some extra cash.
