Aim:
To change fog light globes on a CL9 Honda Accord Euro
Required:
- Size 3 Phillips Head Screwdriver (PH3)
- H11 Light Bulbs
- Torch/Light (Optional)
Steps:
Step 1:
Locate the hole in your front bumper to access the screw that holds the lamp in place.
Step 2:
Locate the phillips head screw holding the lamp in place.
Step 3:
Undo the screw to within a few turns of coming out. (You gotta guess with this :P).
Once it's loose put your hand through the bumper and undo the rest with your finger tips. Don't let the screw drop, it's a real bummer to pick up.
If my fat arms and hands can get in their, so can yours! PS: EPIC REFLECTIONS!
Step 4:
Pull out the whole lamp casing, not to hard, you dont wanna break the wires!
Step 5:
Unclip the plug from the globe.
Step 6:
Rotate the globe counter-clockwise 45 Degrees. And pull out the globe!
Step 7:
Now re-assembly is just a case of completing the steps in reverse order!
When putting the lamp piece back in slot the tab into the slit. The slit is always to the outside of the car.

WWEELLLL let me start off buy saying sorry for the crappy phone pics.
I've got a couple more.
First photo is a comparison of $80+ Philips 4300K (Crystal Vision White) H11 globes (left) vs Oem fog lights.
Pure white my ass.
Quick comparison of Colours.
Note: In most cases the higher you go in kelvin rating (more blue) the less intense the light gets.

Thanks for taking the time to check out my first DIY!
