It's just hard to justify for lights I'll end up using only a month out of a year (at the most!). Still, I can definitely live without them, but they would be nice to have... And they look so pretty.

I put the eBay fog lights in my girlfriend's SX and connected them to an oem harness and stalk we got from a wrecked VRX. Then we just had the dealer turn them on in ETACs, which they did for free :) and they work just like oem for a fraction of the price. Even had the dealer fooled into thinking they were oem fogs :).

There we go.

Please note that these instructions are for MY08-11 ES-VRX
I'm sure that the job for RAs and MY12 Activs & VRXs would be similar.
The only thing that this guide is missing is how to remove the front bumper but you can find a good guide with colour pics on ClubCj by using the search feature.

Cheers.

Smart! If you're ever in Darwin, you can help me with mine... I'll start looking for parts. Heh. :p

Thanks himynameisdaniel, with the pictures and instructions, it doesn't seem that difficult. I'll look into it for sure, at least now I have an option. :)

You can do it quite easily without removing the front bumper. Just do it through the fog light holes and take the radiator cooling panel off and reach down through the gap. Saves heaps of time

I found a set that will fit from the US:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2012-2013-MITSU ... 97&vxp=mtr

It's about $350 plus shipping, so that's about half the price if I'm willing to do the wiring myself.
