Really helped me with upgrading my fog lights to Leads, that rubber gromit was a real pain but persisting at it got it out eventually😅 many thanks!

You're welcome! Happy to hear that the video was helpful! Those rubber gromits can be annoying for sure!

Another well done tutorial in your usual and thorough style. One piece of advice I offer is when replacing with glass bulbs ( aka, incandescent ) is to either NOT touch the glass envelope or wipe it down after connected and before insertion with alcohol or some other solvent. The reason is that oils and grease ( even from your skin ) can decrease the life of the bulb. It concentrates heat in those areas. This comes from the Audio / Visual world where this is a real world problem. I've always practiced this all my automotive career and it works well.

@NexusAuto 10 месяцев назад

Absolutely! That is about the best advice anyone can get when installing bulbs! Thanks for posting and the great feedback too!

My head lights are just garbage I’m looking to put the most legal and brightest headlight bulb as possible can you please assist ???

@NexusAuto Месяц назад

@havoc8737 unfortunately, I can't...at this point. It's a very common complaint on these models. I will be looking to explore some options some time in the future, but haven't gotten to that yet, so I don't have any particular recommendations at this time

@modifiedbear6178 Год назад

Are the led bulbs just plug and play? Or do you need a special conversion kit?

@NexusAuto Год назад

These bulbs are completely plug and play

@Mairajshafi Год назад

Thank you very much and would you also tell me what kind of bulbs I need for main light? H11 for fog I got that

@NexusAuto Год назад

For main light, do you mean the headlight? If so, that is a D2S bulb

@CHMPro 4 года назад

How would I remove the entire fog light? Not just bulb but the whole fog light piece. I'm installing an angel eye while piece.

@NexusAuto 4 года назад

I am not 100% sure if it is the same on the EX(and I think it most likely will be though), but there is 2 bolts that hold the fog lamps in place. You have to access it from the back, just like you do with the bulb. I would be easier to remove the entire lower cover to get to it.

@menardomalabo3289 2 года назад

My 2015 qx60 is making grinding noise when making sharp turns that comes and goes specially from idle. Diagnosed as diferencial problem but dealership won't fix it they concluded its front brake rotors problem. Have you encounter this trouble? Grinding sounds like coming from rear end.

@NexusAuto 2 года назад

Hmmm. I haven't encountered that personally. I have a few questions. So, at idle, it's when you turn the wheel, you hear this grinding noise? Also, at faster speeds, the noise beces quieter when turning the wheel? All the noise comes from the rear of the car? I get the dealership said it's the front brakes, but who diagnosed it as a differential issue? Did the dealer do that too?

@williamzhang8175 Год назад

Is a jack needed for this replacement?

@NexusAuto Год назад

Depends on how big you are lol. If you're skinny or nimble enough, you don't need a jack

@johnandstephanie377 5 лет назад

The covers on my fogs are awful, and faded on the inside. So, make sure you look at this also, when changing bulbs. I'll have to replace them in the future.

@NexusAuto 5 лет назад

Good point. If you are changing the bulbs, it's a good time to get some fresh housings in. Thanks for sharing...very useful for viewers!

@danj9722 5 лет назад

Thank you, will definitely upgrade mine. 👍 is it possible to change the headlights to LEDs too?

@NexusAuto 5 лет назад

No problem. Glad the video helped. It is possible to change the bulbs to LED, but I am not sure if they will truly make a difference. I am hoping to have a LED headlight comparison sometime in the spring.

@DocShields84 2 года назад

Hey man sorry to bother with this question.. does this same approach work for a ‘17 Q50? May be a dumb question. Thanks so much for your time!

@NexusAuto 2 года назад

No bother, John. It's not quite like this Infiniti Q50, from what I see. It is a bit closer to this vehicle ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mCqud_GFU8c.html This is a video from a Chevy Equinox. Although very different vehicles, you have to go in from the same spot, the inner fender liner. The bolts and clips will be different, but the idea is the same. Hopefully it helps give some direction. I have not work on the 17 Q50 at this time, so I can't compare. But this is based on the info I pulled. Hope that helps.

@mrexecutive1 5 лет назад

Where could these LED bulbs be found? also are they still working? as in not burned out yet? thank you.

@NexusAuto 5 лет назад

I bought them Amazon. Most parts stores sell them, along with many only stores. The old and new bulbs all still worked. I only changed them to LEDs as I like the bright white. I tend to upgrade lighting on all my vehicles.

Does the Ballas work for both the fog lamps and the headlights

@NexusAuto 3 года назад

The ballast only works for the headlights. The fog lights do not use a ballast

@siamsikder9845 5 лет назад

Do you know what size are the day time running lights in the QX 60 and do you have any link to suggest from amazon to buy the led bulb for day time running

@NexusAuto 5 лет назад

Are you talking about the bulb that is inside the fog light housing, on top of the fog light?

@eldersteveharris 2 года назад

Can I get a aftermarket fog light bulb?

@NexusAuto 2 года назад

Yep you can. They are an H11 bulb, and you can use an aftermarket standard or LED bulb. I have some bulbs listed in the description, but you can try any regular H11 bulb

Check this video out ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mCqud_GFU8c.html Although this is a different vehicle, a chevy equinox, the methodology is the same. You have to remove (or loosen the front half) of the fender liner and you are actually going in from behind the fender, as opposed to the qx60, where you go from underneath. Hope this helps a little

@dirtdiver17 2 года назад

Excellent. Will this be the same for a 2015 Infiniti q50?

Unfortunately, not quite. I think you have go through the wheel fender to get to those bulbs. You have to remove the inner wheel well liner(or at least loosen it enough) to gain access

Where can you find the name of and the type of bulb? I have a q50

@NexusAuto 4 года назад

Unfortunately, the q50 has LED headlights, so they are not replaceable by people like us! It sucks, I know. Either you have to bring it to an LED specialist who can open the headlight and replace the LEDs, or sorry to say, you have to get a whole new headlight. Which is very very costly!

Nexus Auto actually one more thing, i meant to say for the fog light bulb.... 🤔 i can replace the fog light bulb myself right?

@NexusAuto 4 года назад

@@najranthompson9940 it is LEDs as well, so same as before, you have to buy the whole fog light assembly, not just the bulb. I haven't done it before, but I'm fairly certain you can replace that on your own from underneath. Although different, on my jx35, I need to remove the cover underneath and I can get to it, like in the video. But I just moved the panel aside, whereas I think you will need to remove it completely, disconnect the fog light, and install the new one. But it will have to be the whole housing
