Required tools:
flat head screwdriver
10mm x 3/8 socket
4 inch extension
Suggest to use:
Yoga Mats to lay on floor for comfort
Daytime Driving light bulb:
9005 LED Amber bulb
www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01CTM...
Cons:
Due to low wattage on LED Bulbs, the ECU of the car doesn't detected you have bulb in place, so your warning light will stay on, that is something you personally have to adjust to. Or else you can stay with regular Halogen Bulbs, so that warning light doesn't come up.
Pros:
Very Amber look
Bulb should last longer than Halogen Bulbs

Thanks a lot for the video and it really helped me! I had to replaced passenger side one a couple of years ago and this time for the driver side one as well. The lesson I learnt from the painful experience is how to pull it out within such tight space, which was echoed by many commenters below. The trick is to roll the front wheel to the most of other side so you have enough space to rotate the bulb out. i.e., If you replace left side DRL bulb, turn your front wheel to the right most. As I don't have strong arm 😊 , the extra space really helped me put enough strength to rotate the bulb out (counter-clock wise).

The view inside and outside of the lights is very helpful in identifying which is the one to be replaced. Great thanks!!!

Mine was extremely tight in the holder plus the fact that it is an extremely tight space. Finally had to spray some WD40 around it to get it to break free but was finally able to get it out and change the bulb out. Can’t wait to change the other side eventually 😭

Good stuff. My DRL bulb burned out and was wondering what I needed to remove to get behind the bumper to access the bulb.

Thanks for posting, when I tried this on my car the bolts underneath wont budge because they are so rusty and they feel like they're gonna RIP the whole fender off, infact one of the bolts broke right off, any suggestions?

The real question with this installation to LED bulbs is this: Will it trigger a warning code since LED bulbs require less voltage to illuminate? Some vehicles require a certain type of resistor to work.

@garrybarnes2649 2 жыл бұрын

To make the electrical installation better add daytime running lamp relay from EBay or Amazon

Dont use your thumb to rotate ccw or ("left"), use middle and ring finger.

When I turn on all my headlights at night the fog light bottom to the right is not on..but when I turn off all my headlight..both daytime fog lights work..so does that mean I have to change my fog light instead of the daytime running light?

@johnsonwu6773 5 жыл бұрын

Yes, your fog light needs to be replace. I personally like the LED bulbs, just that you will have to live with the error code daily.

Didn't help me...there's a bolted hard plastic air duct in the way on my 2011 MDX. Didn't see it on your video. I had to remove the bumper to get at the bulb...typical of Honda cars...

@justinspruill6834 4 жыл бұрын

Yep, the drivers side is a pain (passenger side in video). If you do as he does in the video removing clips and get under the car you can pop out a the whole light unit after removal of a hex-bolt. It’s to the outside of the DRL.
