Your video angles, lighting, sound and overall instruction is spot on. Great job!

Thanks for the detailed video. Now I am off to replace a blown fog light . (I got mine last year and I’m still learning the DIYs) I don’t have to ask my dad now😌 #independentdaughter

That’s greet. Go for it. Not much you could do to damage anything in the first place, so worst case you will just need a second hand at some point. Have fun!

Glad it was helpful! That is one of my emphasies, to get angles that show what is happening as best as possible. Sometimes I don't have time time for it, but other times it is a fun challenge.

Don't forget to mention to check the alignment of the light beam so you're not blinding oncoming vehicles

You're welcome! Are you going to get some LEDs for your Highlander?

Very good video. I knew about the panels you removed because I was adjusting the screw on the passenger side low beam and dropped the screwdriver. Guess where it landed. I’ve been looking around for a kit of push pins so that info is good as well. Thanks

On the 2017-2019 Highlander for sure, I’m not sure about other years, the fog bulb can’t be removed with the wire connector still plugged into the bulb. That’s because as your video shows, there is a “ plastic tab “ that prevents you from turning the bulb out or in with the wire still connected. I was struggling to get my old one out for over 20 minutes and finally went back into the house and KZfaqd another video. I think the guy is called “ Track Palmer “ and he mentioned the “ fabs “ that prevent “ the bulb turning . Went back out to my 2017 and it took 10 seconds to get the first bulb out.

@Zeek800 3 ай бұрын

Come to think of it that Track Palmer guy has a 2016 Highlander so I guess it’s the same on the 2014-2016 as well.

I’m headed out now in 20 degrees weather to do my fog lights, hopefully it goes well. I replaced the H11 and high beams with LED Headlight Experts and what a pain in the butt. I can’t get the protectors back on the low beams the new LED are much bigger and have the kit attached. They also pulsate which is an issue, the company state’s warranty, yet it’s like pulling teeth. I purchased the extra clip pack as well. Now to figure out the side socket.

@DansWay Жыл бұрын

Let me clarify, are you saying you used a brand called ‘Headlight Experts’ for the low and high beams? I used Auxito and was mostly able to install the covers. They still bulge out a bit.

Is this a 2021? What size is the fog light bulb?

@joseochoa7043 Жыл бұрын

First off, awesome video man. Attempted to change my passenger fog light but was unsuccessful. Took off the fender liner, the connection but couldn’t take the light bulb itself out. I tried doing exactly how you did it and it wouldn’t budge at all. Any advice would be appreciated

@DansWay Жыл бұрын

If you got the connector off the bulbs, then I would try pushing in and rotating it counter-clockwise 1/8th turn. That should be what it takes to get it off. Perhaps try the other side and see if it is easier and teaches you something that will help get this one off.

I appreciate your videos, Question,, Do you also replace the 9005 headlight bulb also or just the H11

@DansWay Жыл бұрын

For the Fog I'm just replacing the one bulb, the H11 one. For the headlight, I have a separate video showing that replacement here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jrSHoKpyxuC5aZs.html&ab_channel=DoingThingsDan%27sWay

Hi there, I am trying to replace my 2016 Toyota highlander XLE fog lights ( halogen) with LED. Is this the right product to order? H11 H8 H9 LED Fog Light Bulbs, Fanless Design, 6000 Lumens 6500K Cool White

Hey there Ravi! For that make/model, you can use the following: White color = geni.us/2016_wht_fog_hylander Yellow color = geni.us/2016_yel_fog_hylander

GOOD VIDEO DAN… but YOU did NOT even MENTION the BULB NUMBER, such as H-11 or 9005. PERHAPS NEXT TIME YOU SHOULD and I RECOMMEND USING DIELECTRIC GREASE for ANY ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS to HELP RESIST AGAINST ANY CORROSION, especially with WATER SPRAY from DRIVING!!!

@DansWay Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comments. I have the bulbs in the video description you can just click on. I agree that bulb-grease is always a good idea as well.

How do I know if my high lander has the aura to change to LED fog light bulb ??

@DansWay 2 жыл бұрын

Hey there. I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you asking if there is enough area behind to get to the bulb? or are you asking something else?

@PeHtr 2 жыл бұрын

Hi , No my question is. If you need some kind of xtra wire when changing normal to LED, because the LED get hotter and more charge , you would burn the wire, After a while

@DansWay 2 жыл бұрын

Ah, ok I understand. These LEDs do get warm, but honestly they do not get as hot as the original bulbs. They have the heatsink to spread out the heat. The wire and connector don't get burned at all.

@BS-ic2hb Жыл бұрын

@@PeHtr LED's will have a lower amperage draw to the comparable halogen it replaces. The factory bulb is probably a 35w consumption which would be .29 amps and a 5 watt LED will be .041 amps. Extra wire is not needed, and a LED will burn cooler than the halogen. Do not use LED in areas where you need heat to melt snow/ice off your lens cover.

LOL! Try doing some research and read: FMVSS108 There is currently no provision within these regulations to legally replace halogen headlamp bulbs with retrofit LED bulb replacements. As a result, retrofit LED bulbs may not be used in headlights on public roads in the United States. @@ryanh8281
