You didn't give the engine or transmission. I found with our last two
V-6 Accords, it takes at least 12,000 miles for the engine to loosen
up and start giving the best mileage. With our 2003 V-6 we get around
26 in mixed driving, and a consistent 34 mpg on a trip.

I can't find the installation instructions for the fog lamps on the
current generation Accord, but for the '99 is was a pretty difficult
chore. Involved removing the bumper, cutting plastic, etc. The list
price on the lamps is $330. You can buy them on line for around $236,
but assuming the dealer is going to charge you list, that's $170 for
tearing the front end of the car apart. Sounds reasonable.

Yes, they should be pre-wired.
