Oh okay I have seen a few on Ebay for around $200-250 or so. I like the look of them the way that they fill up the gap under the turn signals.

I do want the superwhite bulbs, yes. And also---I am going to replace the front turn signals with clear lenses and orange bulbs---along with the orange side markers. Clear, with orange bulbs.

Is this tough to do?

Very easy to do. For the turn signal all you need is a soldering iron and some patience and you can clear that, and the rear turn signal out. the side marker is just buying new lens. the ones on e-bay are used and my not be the whole kit. You will need the harness,relay, switch, fuse. Also make sure that the ones on e-bay have the harness for the actual fog light. Some don't have them and it is a PITA to screw them onto you bumper.

I didnt realize that you could clear the front and rear turn signals yourself. I cleared out my Accord's front headlights but that was a PAIN, had to put each headlight gasket in the oven for 30 seconds to loosen up the silicone that was holding it shut.

Dont want to make ANY mistakes with my Prelude.

You can do it that way, or just use a soldering iron and melt holes in the platic then break it off slowly. That way no risk of water in the lights. BUT just make sure that you be careful and don't melt the little ridges that hold the light bulbs in.

Sceptre: Okay man, I am a bit confused. Sorry. So basically I am going to take out my turn signals in the front, and the entire rear lights---correct?

And I am going to have to open them up---by breaking open the silicone sealing, and take out the orange reflector pieces---right?

What is a soldering iron?
