2005 TL Foglights

I searched and I found barely anything on how to install the fog light bulbs. I just purchased Nokya 2500K bulbs and they're waiting for me at home to install them tonight. Does anybody know how to install these bulbs? Do I have to go through the wheel wall in order to do this?

Thanks,
Arthur

Did you custom make your fogs?

No I'm speaking about the upper fogs in the headlight assembly. Sorry for the confusion.

you have to remove your front bumper to get to the headlights.

Thanks, I just installed it.

Went through the hood. Had to remove a few things behind the headlights before I could change the bulbs. Fairly easy. No screws, everything just snapped out and snapped back in.

I have been driving around with my fog lights turned on every night because one of my xenon bulbs is out. It's a good thing that my fog lights are part of the headlight equipment. I am expecting to change my fog lights pretty soon, but I am looking for something brighter than the OEMs. Where did you purchase the Nokya 2500 bulbs? Are they brighter than the OEMs?

Hey Arthur, I also have an 05 and I changed my fogs to yellow bulbs. There is no bumper removal required. The passenger side bulb is easy, just locate it, snake your hand behind it, and turn it about half a turn, ( like all honda bulbs). The driver side is the same process exept its a bit more of a tighter space. To get access to the bulb i moved the battery and I removed a small plastic induction tube thats infront of the battery. Its a little tight but it beats taking apart the car.
