2017 maxima fog light change

I recently changed out my headlights to LEDs and they are perfect. But now the fog lights are to yellow. How do you change out the fog lights? is it the same way, through the wheel well just lower? or do you have to go from underneath the car? Also is it the same h11 for the fog lights? Please let me know thanks max crew

Yellow is good for fog. Less reflection of light in the fog.
You should really only use them in the fog, as when you turn them on it also turns on a very bright red tail light, which may be confusing to the traffic behind you, in non-foggy conditions.

Good advice! I did not know the Maximas had the European style brighter rear tail light when fogs are turned on?

^^ Not sure that they do. My 2019 does not have a rear foglight.

Did you swap the entire assembly or just the bulbs? I'm looking to do the same but really have no clue where to start. What brand of bulb did you use? Pics?
