Is it possible to just change the bulb and not the entire switch assembly?

My warranty is just about up, I dont think I can make it to the acura dealership under warranty, plus I gotta make an appointment so it'll take some time before I can get in. Thus the time in between will equate to my warranty being gone

Wheww Heww, i just replaced the bulb for the switch. Super easy and no stress at all... I bought the OEM fog lights from ebay a while back and never used the switch that came with it so I just took the bulb from that and it worked !

So Yes you can just change the bulb. You can get a bulb from here:
http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...URA_TSX_BULB_A

Very simple to change out ! Thanks everyone for the input and help.

hmmmm....i think your probably not using the OEM fog light bulbs, as there are only 2 h11 bulbs in the OEM package. unless you fit an h11 bulb in your seat heater switch? i guess you are referring to the switch bulb in the aftermarket fog kit - or did you get the JDM OEM?

I'm using the light from the switch not the H11s. Of course they are not going to fit. The switch that came with the fog light kit has the exact same screw on type bulb that the seat heater switch uses.

yeah, that was sarcasm. i was simply pointing out your error in calling it the OEM fog kit. the OEM kit replaces the original stalk. no led switch.
