I did dry and it worked out really well.

Was there any issues with the domed shape of the light

None at all. I only had to cut off the tabs once I had the film in place. I used an id to smooth down the edges all the way around in the tight places around the housing...just be careful once it is mainly down to not end up with a crease in the film.
Film looks cloudy off the backing, but once in place it is completely clear.

I just put mine on today. Couldn't believe how easy install was.

Did you cut the tabs off after the install? What did you use to cut? Box cutter ?

I just used a pocket knife. They cut off very easily.

I did a wet install along with a hair dryer. They look great with the lights off but I’ve found them to be slightly green hue at night with the led light behind them.

Is your led fog white ? If yes, watch this

(Product in question)
I'm really needing to do the yellow fog lights to fill the void in my wanna-be race car heart, but I don't want to go at it the wrong way. Has anyone used their products on their car here?

not sure about overlays but just orderd yellow led fog lamps https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GC7GSB3/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I didn't need any water or heat, but it was warm when I installed them. I cut off one tab and placed that side in first, then the rest and trimmed the other tab off. The fog light trim pulls away far enough that you don't need to remove the bumper by any means.
Now, I put it on my old side markers and it was cold out then, a hair dryer made it real soft and pliable.
I had yellow on the first car, but after about a year and a half, it seemed like it faded a lot. Couldn't tell in the day time, but at night on some fresh white snow, it just didn't seem as yellow after about a year and a half.

I previously cracked the fog light on my EX-T last year and it took me a good 2 hours to remove the bumper and replace the fog light housing (without breaking any clips). I also replaced the OEM halogen bulbs with LED bulbs and, in my opinion, too bright. Not wanting to blind other drivers, I applied the Lamin-X protective film (light smoke) on the fog lights to prevent future cracks and to reduce the glare to other drivers. It works great. I highly recommend it. Even if you don't go for a color/yellow tint, having the added protection on the glass fog lights for $15 is a great idea.
