2007 Honda Fit Headlight Bulb Replacement
#2
Two ways that I know of...
1. removing the inner fender
2. removing the front bumper cover
We have probably removed the front bumper 10 times at this point to access the headlights. It's fast and easy once you've done it a couple of times and I'd rather mess with the bumper cover than fight inner fenders. I hate those things.

For the left headlight, turn the steering wheel all the way right to make room, then remove the one clip holding the fender liner up and then bend it back. You'll have plenty of room (relatively) to get in there and change it. Don't pull off your bumper to change a light bulb; that'd be nuts.

About to drive across the country and... pop. No passenger side headlight.
Thanks!

Its easy, you just take 2 of the clips, then push the liner away and you will have plenty of room to get your hand in there.
Just know how the wire clip that holds the bulb in goes since its all by feel, cant see what you are doing. You need to know how it gets secured.
I changed mine with LED bulbs and man, what a difference in light output.

I hate bulbs that are too bright for oncoming traffic (don't even get me started on headlights that aren't properly adjusted / aimed), but my current output is shit. I even sanded and re-clearcoated the lenses to no avail.

Also, what is the headlight style code (9003, 9004, 9005, 9006, 9007, 9008/H13, H1, H3, H7, H11) for a 2007 Fit?
Nevermind... For those looking later:
Headlights (high/low): 9003
Fog Lights: H11 (though H8 & H16 claim to also work)

Which bulbs did you go with? Wanting more output myself.

I got these BULBS the light pattern is adjustable by turning the base. I havent seen this in other bulbs. I parked my car and walked out 25-30 ft or more to look at it and its bright but not blinding.
High beams suck but low beam had lots of light so i may not need the highs.
I also got the H11 fogs after seeing how good these worked, havent installed those yet.
