ill be honest with ya .. after checking out a friends box with the fogs...
i think they are crap and more for looks over functionality ...
from what i have heard .. the JDMs have clear housing right .. if so .. go with those

I believe hahajoey has JDM fogs. I think the JDM fogs are brighter, but I think you have to rig up the power switch on your own...

yes it comes with the swtich and relay and etc, just takes a little creative hook-up to mate the JDM switch to the USDM harness. Been covered a bunch of times - I'd link the thread here - but don't feel like grabbing it.
It's not hard to do if you're not totally helpless with small DIY projects.
For most of those that complain about the USDM/JDM fogs being too dim - 1. FOGS AREN'T DRIVING LIGHTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY'RE FOG LIGHTS!. If you want DRIVING LIGHTS -- buy pencil-beam pattern DRIVING LIGHTS!! 2. Try changing out the dim bulbs for a brighter version - they're just standard headlight bulbs for christs sake - it's not like you're getting screwed with having to run 1157's for fogs or something. Good lord people.
Oh BTW - on topic - which to buy depends on your box's color. The grey housing USDM version looks better on Silver, Grey and Black box's - the chrome JDM versions look better on the other colors.
