Where is small said cover? Do you mean the under engine cover? Changeing the fog bulbs in an accord reminds me of the days I owned a Megane R26 and the **** about changing a head light bulb.... :wacko: Cheers.

Evening all, Could someone please inform me how I remove the fog light units? Or even how to get access to replace the bulbs. After having a gander it doesn't seem to be the most straight forward of tasks. Any tips, tricks and advice would be greatly welcome!

I know this is an old thread, but I came across it while searching for the same problem. I have purchaced these 'inline capacitors' and they remove the flickering. From here... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281201459837?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Hopefuly this will help...

No it is a differnt wiring loom altogether.. They have been fitted, but it is a decent amount of work by someone that is very knowledgeable with auto electrics.

Thanks for the above, I striped it down and saw it was only a rubber coating that provided the colour. Thus I have ordered 3mm LEDs (and resistors) to reaplce these filament bulbs.. Going to go for white in the off position, yellow at low setting and red for high. I'll throw up a few photos...

It is not an OEM device... the one in the above link.

I must say the LED's look a lot smarter.

Slide the main control switch forward to the door opening setting!!!

As long as you have the same system as the factory xenons.... Self levelers, optics and washers. They would slaughter on coming traffic if in standard headlight housings. I have been through MOT with them in my Megan R26... A Northern Ireland MOT that is not one of the back garage England types!

You can get a windows 5CE version of tomtom from torrent. That will run on the head unit. I had it running on an s****y xtrons system in my last motor. When the unit arrives I will post a small guide on getting it up and running.

Yes... it is exactly the same unit as in the first post.

I have given up on both filament bulbs and xenons... I now use these.. They are Cree bulbs that produce circa 3000Lm and like all cree lighting they will last longer than the car.

Just a thought for anyone that is thinking of this... The above posted GPS (maybe only for reference) Is on ebay for £218 delivered where that website is charging £383!! :o I am waiting on it being delivered. Then going to port the tomtom mapping software to it rather than the muck it comes with.

I thought I would do a quick post on the plate SMDs I have added to the motor. I despise the yellow glow of filament bulb and they aren't that bright! Any how these are what I purchased. And they come with both festoon (sprung so fit many sizes) and T10 or 501. I first shortened the...

Will a 1994-1997 cat back exhaust fit a 2004 accord? I imagine not, but I have had the offer of a brand new cat back zorst for £20. So just wondering!

Put me down for one please.

From looking at one of the posts by another member it may seem that the colour is from a filter and not the bulb itself. It makes me think it may be near impossible to change the colour of the switches as the filter is in bedded in the switch itself. :rolleyes:

Cheers for the info.... That bulb could have been replaced with an LED simply enough. From seeing the picture you have included it makes me think that there is an orange filter on the plastic switch itself. Which would put to bed my idea of changing out for a different colour. :rolleyes...

The bulbs for the switches in the main are filaments which can just be swapped over for an LED alternative. (T1 leds probably with an inline resistor of resistance 'X') The bulbs that are on the head unit / climate control are surface mounted SMDs. (which will require desoldering and...
