I decided to install fog lights on my 2022 Si and had heard good things on the forum about Mikstore. So I purchased the fog light kit and OEM turn signal stalk switch. I also added yellow Lamin-X to the lights because I like that look.

Packing materials Material property Font Glove Plastic wrap

I removed the bumper just like other posts and videos show, installed the lights and ran the wiring. Mikstore told me how to attach the wires to the OEM stalk and everything works! Fogs turn on independent of the headlights but won't turn on unless the car is running.

How long did it take you to wire things together? I’d love to do something like this to mine

The whole thing took a couple of hours. The wiring was pretty easy. Taking off the bumper and re-installing probably is the most time consuming. The only connections you have to make are the 12V power, ground and switch power. I used fuse 42 for my switch connection so the lights only have power when the car is on.

looks great. Nice install work. It appears you can do a rear fog light with the stalk too ?

Does it come with fuse taps/splitters, or is electrical work required? I don’t have the tools for soldering or cutting/stripping wires.

That’s really cool though my friend, it looks good. I’m definitely going to look into it. I feel you on the bumper, it took me so long to remove mine. So many damn clips

Yes, switch will also do rear fogs. I have not looked into how to wire that yet.

It comes with the wiring, relay and switches. The only things I used from my own supplies were the add a circuit/fuse tap and one butt splice connector. Crimper, wire stripper, Tessa tape and panel pry tools definitely help. No actual electrical work required, just connecting a couple of wires.

Great to see someone has done this. I'm looking for similar for my Si. Did you buy their OEM kit or their projector kit? Any night pictures of the front view of the car or the driver's view? Thanks

I bought the OEM kit. I will try to add more pictures when I can. They are definitely not as bright as "premium" LED lights I have on my Tundra and Bronco.

Decent price difference but looking for something brighter. I will hold off on ordering until I see your pics. Thank you

Nice work. A real slap in the face by Honda to delete these, but does give folks the opportunity to know their cars better.

And honestly a lot of owners, including myself, enjoy having our cars be hobby kits too.

The OEM stalk is one of the drop-down options. It takes a while for the shipping since it is coming from the Philippines.
