Has any replaced the bulb for DRL/Foglight on a 2008 G35 sedan? If you so how easy was it and what bulb and color did you use.

 

regarding the kind of bulb, u can look that up in ur manual or the sylvania site.

to access that light is a pita, so u might haveta take off the whole headlight. search here for headlight removal and u will see instructions.

yes it involves taking off the bumper.

 

I did replace mine not long ago, I used the yellow hoen bulbs and they look good, and also better ilumination when fogs on. To change them its a little bit tight but not too bad, I went from above, took me 10 mins for both; for the right one, you need to remove the windshield fluid reservor.... just pull it out.

 

i got the chrome ones that blink amber, i hate the yellow color!

 

So the difference is noticeable?

Do you have pic? in daylight and at night?

Thanks.

 

Where did you purchase the bulb from?

 

Sorry no pics at the moment but will post one later.... yes the diference in noticeable, and while running the DRL it looks a lot better than the stock. When fogs are on, yes its better but still not as good as if the whole assembly was outside of the headlight housing.....

Not sure if the question was for me; but I bought them from: www.hoen-usa.com.

 

I got mine from v-Leds.com. I purchased the high quality $60 ones. You get what you pay for. No problems on my end. Easy install. took 15min.

EDIT: They're on sale right now..

If you have big hands its a big pain. The driver side you can access the bulb by going through the wheel well. You'll have to snake your hands around and feel your way around.

As for for the passenger side i ended up opening the hood and removed the passenger side intake to get at that bulb. It just seemed to tight to access that bulb from the wheel well.

I think the bulb size is HB4 aka 9006. I ended up going with the Nokya 3000k yellow halogen bulbs. Its a nice contrast to our xenon bulbs. Also when you drive in rain or snow, lower kelvin (even halogen bulbs) can cut through the elements better because it wont "wash out".

 

peeps can you post piks of day and night i would like to see also

 

Take out the left and right air filter housings. Then the washer fluid reservoir. Don't remove the bumper. Don't remove the wheel wells lol I changed mine to the whitest halogen I could find. At night it looks almost OEM HID white (4300k, picture doesn't do it justice). Some people flash me because they think I have my high beams on. I'm going to try an LED bulb which will be dimmer. The bulb is 9006.

 

Here is mine with the yellow Nokya 3k halogen bulb. Sorry for the angle but I took it with my cell phone.



That turned put much nicer than I imagined. What bulb is that? You should change your parking light to white too to complete the conversion to white.

 

I'm not sure what bulb it is. Bought it from a guy I regularly deal with. Told him I wanted oem white and he found it. I'm going to keep the amber parking light. Trying to go with an updated oem look. I like how new Audi's, BMW's, and Benz's have white LED accents but they all still have amber parking lights.

 

I just put in cool white LED bulb replacement, matches the light color fairly close but I will be adding 55w ballasts and 6k bulbs with the lens mod as well. The LED bulb does nothing but change the appearance. I just didnt like that yellowish tint against the HIDs

I do, as well, like the look of the amber accents seems to give the area more depth then being all one color.

 

Can you post a night shot of it?
