Does anyone know if there is a plug and play upgrade for the 2017 fog lights? I have the touring LED headlights and the fog lights look sort of lame. Two yellow blobs sitting under the bright white headlights. I'm looking for something that does not require whole new lenses or major wiring modifications.

I found out how to swap out the OEM incandescent bulbs with plug and play LED bulbs. As you can see in the pics, the fog lights went from yellow to bright white. But, there is a problem with the cheap ones (about $25 for the pair) I used, lots of scattered light and glare. You can see a nice clean cut off line in the first pic with the tree with just the headlights, but when I turn the fog lights on in the second pic, their light goes well above the line. You can even see my shadow in the tree branches. I can imagine how annoying it would be for me to be following you with those puppies turned on. Or worse, how you would be blinded by them if you were in oncoming traffic.

I did not want to be "that guy" so I ordered some Phillips with a glare prevention LED crystal layout design. They should be here Friday and I plan to install them Saturday. I'll post pics so we can see if they are better at 4 times the price.

As promised. I changed out the cheaper LED bulbs for some Phillips no-glare bulbs. Here are some pics. The first couple show a comparison of the bulbs. Note how the end of the Phillips bulb is opaque like the OEM halogen bulbs at the top of the pic. This works to reduce glare by focusing the light onto the reflective surface on the back of the fog light housing where is projected in a specific area, instead of being scattered around like the cheaper bulbs. The cheap bulbs also have a clear end that produces unfocused light. I suppose you could find a cheaper brand with an opaque end and get a similar effect. I choose the Phillips because, well nothing is too good for my baby, and they do not get hot, are expected to last 12 years, and have a 3 year warranty (if you register them).

The second set of pics show the illumination with the new LED fog lights off and then on.

The third one shows the sharp cut off of the headlights (top) and fog lights (bottom) on my trash can.

I have Lasfit in all of my lights low/high beam and fogs. They are a huge upgrade and I have no complaints whatsoever so far, only about a month in though hope it stays that way.

How did you install these? From the top or bottom through the wheel liner?

How did you guys install these? By looking under the hood, probably from the bottom or through the wheel well.

Here's a tutorial video that I used when I did mine.

I am about to order some Sirius led fog lights. I am wondering if that is all I need? Do I just take out my fog bulbs now and plug these in? They are advertising that they are 6000k. I wonder how they will look so if anyone has any thoughts I’ll wait a couple of days before I checkout and order them. Thanks a lot guys

They are easy to install. Just swap them with the OEM bulbs. They match the LED lights on my Touring well, BUT the spread of the lights is different than the OEM bulbs. The Sirius LEDs don't have much of a cut off. They seem like they would bother oncoming drivers. That said, I haven't had anyone flash their high beams at me when I have the fog lights on.

I think replacing the OEM fog bulbs with LEDs are a great idea... I swapped mine with the OPT7 LEDs, they were very easy, plug and play. It makes a huge difference especially since the fog light housing are reflectors as LEDs do not work well with projectors. The installation was not hard at all, the most time was spent opening up the panels under the front bumper to get to the lights. There are access panels, just a few pesky quick release tabs and screws. Just watch the youtube video and you will be fine.

Same car as you, with same results. What I paid and everyone who buy this model equip with LED headlight get those two "yellow" fog lights. Come on HONDA!!! They've should installed LED fog's from the factory!!
