Did you end up keeping your other halogen lights (fog lights, high beams) or did you switch it all to LED? I’m debating whether it’s worth going down the rabbit hole of switching everything or just the low beam and running light for my 2013 accord
So, in essence, the bulb lights up the empty column that lights up and you have to physically put the new LED lights into that column and literally fill the gap?
@@TheAuto101 Can't thank you enough for your video. My Dad chose drugs and alcohol over teaching his kids about cars and your information really helps me out. Much appreciated.
Check the size of the 3 prongs or tabs. 2 large/1 smaller @8:00. Line those up in your bulb assembly and it should fit correctly. Also be careful when installing-if you damage the oring or the plastic bulb assembly you’ll have water coming into headlights
My Guy, these are N O T 🚫 DRL strips Only the V6 Accords come with LED DRLs. These 4 cylinder models use the Highbeam at half power in the day for the drls, not these strips you installed They're your parking lights, so you have to drive with your headlights on to see them in the day. Your taillights will also be on the whole time. Also, you can install them through the wheel well without removing the tire, I made a video on it
I was wondering about this because when my kid was driving behind me, all I could see a weak (virtually useless in Arizona sunshine) yellowish DRL that appears to be one of the bigger bulbs in the headlight assembly. @TheAuto101 - can you confirm that the strips are the parking light and not DRLs? It is possible that the Canadian Accord is different from the US version... and in 2015 yours had DRLs along the bottom.
@Striker50 - Is there a LED option for the high-beam bulb that will function at 1/2 power as DRLs? Realistically I rarely use high-beam because this is not our road-trip car, so those high-beam lights only serve as DRLs.
great video just installed both for my accord looks beautiful
Thanks man, really switches up the look fr
I’ve been looking for a detailed review on these bad boys. Thanks for this! Definitely going to purchase
That is one incredible upgrade in looks
Makes a big difference eh?
Very Helpful and Easy to understand! Thanks!

I've only ended up switching what's shown in the video. But maybe something to consider going forward!
This is quite helpful, thanks!
Thanks for the detailed video man
Glad you found it helpful man!

Yeah exactly, you shove in the LED strip into the gap/column

they dont have bulbs that fit in the spot that are bright enough to light up the whole strip?
do you need to unplug the battery or just turn the car off and get them out?
Not sure what’s safer, but I only turned off the car. Thanks for watching!
What i syour imoression after installing and using it for over a year?
They've been working great so far. Just posted a review on my Accord, so you can see how they're holding up after one year.
Does this technique work on jaguar xj 2011 ?
What’s the link to get the strip?
Hi, thanks for watching! the link is in the description of the video.
hey I got the same brand of Led bulb and tried to install but one works other doesn't work. Should i get lower watts or decoder?
Hmm that's odd, it should be plug and play for this generation Accord. Maybe try getting a replacement?
Same issue for me- one works but the other doesn't (2015 Accord EX-L V6)
Update: just had to flip polarity
@@NathanWojo Awesome, glad it worked out. Thanks for sharing, useful info
Any idea why the lowbeam lights won’t twist and lock into place? Currently struggling

What about if my lights dnt turn on ?
Hmm odd, they should turn on when hooked up
experience after one year of use I am planning to buy one .
So far they've been working great. Just posted a video on my Accord so you can see how they're holding up after one year
Bro $20 for the same LED DRLS on aliexpress from ijdm company. Hope that helps for anyone else looking to upgrade
Damn, thanks for the tip man. I’m sure it’ll help anyone looking
link?

@@ruviwije Yes, look on my channel, I replaced the Yellow High Beams with LED bulbs that operate at half power during the day
@@ruviwije The Canadian Sport Accord does have LED strips from factory, but these aren't it in the video, they're just aftermarket nonsense
Oh true, my bad, good to know, thank you!
It was very hard for me to concentrate during this tutorial 👀
