Me and my buddy just got around to doing this. (He did it on his Accord). I used an OEM Scion switch so I can turn them on and off whenever I want.

My buddy did Amber footwells

Thanks man. I choose amber because it goes with my color scheme. My front strut bar and engine covers are Orange and my fogs are amber (the match with the OEM reflectors the Accord have) Here is a pic of my light setup

I do not have the DRL LEDs anymore, I got some yellow Putco ones now

Thanks man I wanted to do something different, everyone has either 6k 8k or JDM on the fogs. I wanted to do something different and blend with the OEM look. Most people with my car buy the JDM clear lenses and retrofit. I like Boss OEM style lol

Any chance that these pictures are still saved somewhere? The pictures are not showing up for me throughout the write up.

Thanks.
