This video shows you how to install a factory style fog light kit in a 2003 Honda Pilot which involves cutting part of the front bumper out. I also show you how to adjust the fog lights after installation.
If you’re thinking about installing fog lights on your vehicle, this guide will give you an idea of what you might be looking at to get that done.
Thanks for watching!

Pretty nice plug and play harness @EricTheCarGuy
The second fog light kit is way better on the brackets then the first kit I think they gray looks good next to the black and silver bit nothing wrong with black matching fog housings @EricTheCarGuy
It always works out As should be a simple job and then Shiz gets real and becomes super complicated that's just the life for us Mechanics Eric @EricTheCarGuy
I have purchased this kit over a year ago and couldn’t figure it for the life of me even though I have installed several fog light kits on Toyotas. So thank you so so much for this video! I do want to ask why the first fog light bracket wouldn’t have worked? I seem to have the exact kit and am not sure why the original fog lights wouldn’t fit your bumper ?
I jus start watching
I Love it
My goodness you grayed out. I started watching you some time ago when I had a 91 honda wagon. You helped me out with that thing a lot.
I haven't had the need to watch in awhile after getting my 06 pilot.
Don't feel bad, I lost a bunch of hair and grayed out during the in between time I haven't been on
honda related but I have a 2011 honda crv with 74k on it and the steering wheel is extremely hard to turn no matter what way you turn the wheel. I'm wondering what's wrong and if anyone can help
How do we install fog lights for a 2005 Honda odyssey?
Looks good, well done.
No hate man but you need to set down and think what is and isn't working. The content has been awful.
hello Eric, hope u r doing good
i have an 2008 honda accord i have engine code its P0011 i dont know if its the VTC Actuator or VTC solenoid. if you can help me diagnose i would appreciate
Eric should try a nice cherry red on the Emblem
this is the most complicated fog light installation , I have ever seen
Nice job. I have a 2002 CR-V that I would like to do a complete wiring harness replacement. Do you have a tutorial on something like that?
I remember changing these bulbs on a 2003 was a nightmare. It was horrible. I think honda ended up doing it instead it was worth whatever it cost to shove the job off on someone else
