icen Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Hey, did you guys replace the bulb from the wheel well? or did you guys do it from underneath the body? just want to know the easiest way before I get my self dirty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1692 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 I did mine from under the body. There are a couple of plastic screw retainers that give you access through the panel underneath the fog light assembly. Much faster and a lot less work to access these!

icen Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 awesome. thanks man total random change of topic. Hey, can't helped but noticed that you are from Colarado. I had a 2 weeks road trip from California to Toronto before and drove by Colarado. All my friends told me to go to hot spring, but my friend who was in the road trip with me didn't want to, so we ended up not going. is it really that good or is it overrated?

1692 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 If you have the opportunity to... it's so well worth it! I have found that I have been so relaxed every time I have gone. My wife and I are hoping to get to some in the next couple of months! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieN8 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 ^Ditto. In fact, we just booked a weekend at Glenwood again. Love it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1692 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Love the hot springs there!! We were thinking about going there too since it's a great place we can take our 3 year old son! If it was a bit warmer weather, I'd love to go rafting in the canyon there again... went years ago and loved it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieN8 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 ^ We haven't been rafting yet, but we want to. We should invite CalitoColo and all of us should go sometime! We still need to meet up for food, if you're up for it. We met he and his gf for food and it was a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icen Posted February 16, 2016 Author Share Posted February 16, 2016 subieNB, didn't realize that you are from Colorado too until now. Sounds fun. are those like all natural hot spring where you are sort of in a little pond? or is it all man made like swimming pool? I figure it would be cool to be in hot spring water while you face is .. well.. at 23 oF air with breeze.. rafting sounds awesome too... darn.. if only there's fun places nearby Toronto.

SubieN8 Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 There's both types. The one we've been to is man made. It's a giant swimming pool, GIANT, that the water is like bath water. There's a normal sized one for the hotter side, more like a hot hot tub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 As mentioned, there's three plastic screws/clips, you can drop the mud cover and reach up and swap out the bulbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icen Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Thanks !!! Thought I was receiving the bulbs for my fog, turns out its not the right H16. I'm ordering some H11 , probably going to arrive next moth. -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm ordering some H11 , probably going to arrive next moth. -_- You "need" H16 bulbs if you don't have the Steering Responsive Foglights and "need" H11 bulbs if you do have SRF. IIRC, it's based on the housing and the wattage of the bulbs, one being plastic/ABS and the other being a metal housing for the H11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icen Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 I got this h16 Looks like it's the wrong one It's led bulb so I guess it should be ok with the wattage Only 20 W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1692 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'm not sure if the connector is the same on the two different types of H16 bulbs or not... but my gut tells me it may be a different connector. The wattage on that should be perfectly fine since it's the LED and the heat dissipates on the ribbon out the back. The only time you really need to worry about the wattage is if you were replacing the halogen bulb. The H11 has a much higher output, and puts off a lot more heat that could melt the plastic housing on the non-steering responsive lights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 That doesn't look like the right connector, off the top of my head. IIRC, all the connectors have rounded/oval corners, but I used the H11 bulbs, but the connectors should be the same. That looks squarish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icen Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Yeh. I don't think it's the right connector either. Should look more like h11 Don't even bother to try installing it. Waiting for my h11 to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toss the OEM halogen housing and get proper projector LED replacement. My Legacy have the XB fog lights. It's a huge upgrade over the OEM and LED bulbs in OEM housing (tried both).

cptsrq Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Do these MORIMOTO XB LED FOGS, https://www.theretrofitsource.com/complete-headlight-fog-light-housings/morimoto-xb-led-fog-lights-toyota.html#.VsxePfkrKHt, connect directly into the stock housing, or do you need to modify them?
