This post might help, though it covers more than just a simple replacement.

Thanks onearmbandit. Just read it and it is mainly for fitting a pair of fog lights. There is some info about possibly being able to change a fog lamp without having to remove the bumper...I hope so.

Good advice re the fog light covers.

 

They are superb, easy to fit and can be removed/replaced whenever you like.
Have a set on mine

 

Just ordered a fog light from ebay at £28.45.
2006 2012 HONDA CIVIC FN2 TYPE R S FRONT BUMPER O/S DRIVER SIDE FOG LIGHT LAMP | eBay

A quote for a genuine Honda one is £94.72.

Just hope it fits okay.

Just after that fitting advice now.

 

I can't remember if there is enough room, or splash guard will need to be removed, but you'll know when you jack the front up.

But if you find it will be easier to take off front bumper then here's a link to Cox Motor guide to change front grille with bumper removal. Note you won't have to remove the front grille.

I replaced the fog light on my 56 plate type s, there's a hole on the lip under the bumper just get a extended ratchet thing stick it through to get to the screw, unscrew the screws and comes out easy

 

I will have to look to see if there is a hole under the bumper to get the socket rachet into. As mine is a 59 plate type S, it has the same bumper as the Type R, which the insructions dont apply to. Once I get the part I will see what route I have to take. Would rather take the wheel and arch liner off than take the bumper off. They surely can't make it too difficult as there would be a need to change a the bulb. Has no one changed a bulb on a fog light on a Type S after Sept 2009?

 

If there isn't, make one(at own risk),

Just use a 20mm hole saw and before you go through with the drill, remove the bit and start doing it manually to prevent any damage to anything else that may be there.

 

Thats so strange. I have a 59 plate red type s gt. Yesterday i noticed my nearside foglight is shattered.

Although I have the same colour coded bumper as theType R I have felt under the bumper, under the offside foglight and I do appear to have two holes...good news.
Once my fog light arrives I will do some pics of how it pans out.

 

Today I fitted my ebay £28 fog light. All went smoothly once I had sourced the tools.
1. Firstly I decided to drive upto a kerb with my front overhanging the road. This way I didn't need to jack up the car.
2. There are two holes under the bumper on either side. The inside hole of the two is the one that has the retaining bolt.
3. Using a 10mm socket and a long extension, place it in the inside hole and locate on the bolt. Remove the bolt.
4. The fog light should just drop out.
5. Disconnect the electric connection with a screwdriver.
6. Remove the bulb holder and bulb with a twist and put it into the new fog light.
7. Reconnect the electrical connection and test the light before refitting.
8. Put the bolt in the socket and feed through the hole to the fitting hole on the bumper. Hold it in place then push the new fog light into place. The bolt should then easily locate into the thread of the new fog light. Tighten the bolt...Job done.

My ebay fog light looked identical to the one I removed. At £28 as opposed to £94 for a genuine Honda part this was a good buy.

The one fitted was from ebay aswell and after few weeks it filled with water! Had to buy another one and put sealant round all the edges! Watch out for that

 

Will keep an eye on that and report back here if any problems.

 

Nice how to Sensible, now get them protected

 

Might seem like a silly question but can you use the fog lights with the covers on orcdo you need to take them off.

 

I just recently got a pair of covers.
As the fogs are slightly recessed, the extra depth makes them flush, which sort-of looks right, and the cut, shape and fit are as near-perfect as possible.
Not remotely related either, just a happy customer!
Al.

 

One small tip... put a tiny bit of blutac in the socket so the bolt doesn't fall out when withdrawing the extension from the bumper.

This happened to me but luckily I could reach it through the fog light hole
