airgate: This install is wicked! Great job. It certainly makes a noticeable improvement to those fake ducts.

A couple of question, before you end up getting a bunch of emails asking the same things....

1. Why didn't the shop just take off the front bumper to cut the hole and secure the lights? It takes 10 minutes to do, and I'd think it would make the job much easier to do.

2. Where did you get the dash switch, and what does it have marked on it? It looks OEM.

Thanks for sharing this info and the pics with everyone!

The dash switch pictured is the switch all PIAA come with. I had a pair of 1100X's that used the same switch.

airgate -- those look great, almost factory.

Question though: that inner-fender shot...have you been driving your car in snow/salt?

No I have not and the installer said that all materials he used are galvanized. . .I plan on asking him what's up with the rust build up!

Here's an idea...

Does anybody know if the Prelude fog light switch would fit in the spare socket (I guess that's what you would call it) on the defogger switch basket thingy. I can't find the pic you show what I talking about. Actually, I never looked, but buy the switch holder that replaces the coin tray. Use the foggy switch instead of the defogger switch, and then, of course, cover the extra button with spare cover. Does that make sense? Maybe I should look for the pic.

How about this -- get a second S2000 cruise-control switch, which should be the right size to fit there. Take the word CRUISE off with a bit of solvent or fine-grit sandpaper, or get a tiny PIAA sticker to cover it.
