Welcome back guys!
In this video, I'll show you guys how easy it is to replace the fog light bulb on a 2015 Honda CR-V. This should be relatively similar on other Honda vehicles. The whole process takes less than 4 minutes!

I've had my CR-V for over 8 years and this is the first exterior light I'll have to change. Looks very easy! Thanks!

My wife's 2016 took a direct hit from a rock. Thanks for saving me a trip to the dealer! It was easy thanks to you. I was ready to start tearing out the under-carriage cover!!!

Thanks for the help. Also, you made my day when you fumbled the original bulb. 😅🤗

Use a plastic pry tool to start removing the trim at the inside point. The #2 screw is seized tight. Break it loose with a clutched powered screwdriver. When replacing trim coax upper middle tab above lens assembly. Thanks. This is much easier than accessing from the back or under.

Brilliant video. Light not working after hitting a deer. Had no idea how to get into this light and was dreading a visit to my local dealer!

This was great, except it took me 10-15 minutes of fighting with the trim to get it off, and then another 10 minutes and an emergency call to my dad the mechanical engineer to get the screw moving. After that … easy as pie!!

Thank you so much, someone hit my daughter’s CRV so bulb and trim around it need replacing. I will give it a try.

Nice. I tried from the wheel well and looked and said has to be another way. My trim was not as easy. Thin putty knife helped.

@DIYDetail 4 жыл бұрын

It did take some amount of force to take it off and did feel like it was going to break at one point!

Thanks very helpful. I have the led bulbs and plan to replace all bulbs high/ low and fog light bulbs soon.

Highly recommend switching to LEDs! The illumination offered is way better than the stock halogens

Anyone who has ever worked on cars for years knows dropping a bulb like this happens. He could've edited and did another take but I'm glad he didn't because this is reality. Good video.

thank you for the video. This appears to be simpler than from the wheel side....will definitely try it. Will it work on 2017 Honda CRV as well?

@DIYDetail 3 жыл бұрын

No problem! I’m not too sure if they still use the exterior trim piece like the earlier models. If they do, I believe it should still work!

@ning7091 5 ай бұрын

Honda should make the 1st cover piece metal, otherwise it is easy to break it when take it off.

Never got passed step 1. I used my finger to pry the trim, then my finger broke along with broken clips… had to replace the entire fog light unit.

@arumnugroho8606 2 жыл бұрын

Could you give detail how to do step 1? I tried many times and failed ☺️

@DIYDetail 2 жыл бұрын

Sure! This was done on a 2015 CRV, which uses the push-tab trim but it’s best to check your manual to see if your model year is this push-tab trim or a screw-in trim. At first it’s tricky but if you feel around the trim, you’ll feel a hole where only one finger really fits. After you manage to get your finger in there (it’ll slightly hurt), you want to pull the trim directly towards you. If you’ve never taken the trim off, it’ll be stuck on there and need some force. After it’s released, carefully pry it from the sides. You could also try to use a trim tool around the outer trim but be careful not to scratch the paint. Hope that helps!

Stuck on step 1. Cant remove plastic trim. Help

@DIYDetail 3 жыл бұрын

What year is your CRV? It seems like some models actually use a screw to hold it in place but checking your manual can easily confirm if this method will work

What kind of trickery is this......it does not come out like this......used a screw driver too and still won't come out

@DIYDetail 3 жыл бұрын

This was done on a 2015 model. The newer ones seem to have screw holding it in place so you have to go through the wheel well. If yours is also 2015 then it should be the same. It does require a lot of force if you never took it off before. Best to check the manual if it’s a different year

I checked on Honda’s website for a 2016 manual and it’s the same way as shown in this video. If you have the manual handy, it’s on page 463!
