I have read on here that H11 will also work, so my best guess is that either H8/H11 will work.

I'm so glad I saw this post today...I've just been searching the usual auto parts websites for this. I like the look of the foglights, I just hate how they look with the HID lights on. A 'Super-White' style bulb would look much better I would think, as it would match closer to the HID style.

What do you guys think?

Are H8 and H11 the same size bulbs by chance? Also, I went on tirerack.com and their website states 9006 is the foglight bulb size. Any input?

No, it's simple.

Search for tips/DIY (sorry, but thats the best) or check the Owners Manual.

Good place to check for a DIY:

If you don't have an Owners Manual:

My fogs are yellow. I didn't buy any bulbs, kept them stock. What I did was put yellow plexiglas in the black bumper inserts. They are BRIGHT yellow and the 1/4" plexiglas will protect the fogs from anything thrown at them. Best of both worlds, looks great and super protection. I also have the Nokya Hyper Yellow bulbs for the DRL's. Very bright and easy to see during the day. Looks great with a WDP TL-S.

You need H8 for your fog lights. 9006 is wrong.

i had to remove my bumper to put mine in because my CAI got in the way. idk if other people had this problem but if you you have a stock then you shouldn't have to remove the bumper. its really simple either way, just unplug the stock and plug in the new sexy bulb and your done.

chuanger is of course right.

When Acura changed the Fog Light design in '07 they also changed the base type (to H8).

MANY of the fitment did not get updated properly. Even the bulb spec in some of the '07 Owners Manual are wrong, iirc. The main lighting guide (from Sylvania) was wrong for a long time - that error found it's way into many other fitment guides.

H8 is the right bulb. If you are thinking H11, those are the bulbs we put in the foglights for those who have done the Accord foglight mod only.
