I thought the 21 and up Ridgelines did not have replaceable fog light bulbs and you had to install a new fog light assembly. Is this not true? I really wish the low beams were bulb friendly and not a complete headlight replacement :cautious:
You can replace the led unit that’s in there. Plug and play. Easy install. You don’t have to take out the fog light assembly at all.

Came cross these replacement LEDs on Amazon. They are bright and rich in color. Very easy to install. Check out the pics! Link is below. Enjoy!

Looks like I am unable to drop link? PM me so I can send it to ya!
I saw you post these and ordered the lights right away. Install took a total of 10 minutes. Turn the wheel all the way to one side, remove 3 screws and one bolt along the front of the wheel well and you'll have access to the fog light assembly. Super easy!
 
I ordered these a month ago and finally got around to installing. Piece of cake.

Two screws in the fender liner, one below at the corner, one or two push clips if needed. Peel back the thin liner and there it is. Takes just a few minutes.

These are LED modules, but It's just like replacing a bulb, just unplug, twist out, twist the new one in, plug back in.

Any concerns with the housings and heat from the LED's. This seems like something I could do. Are you pleased with the performance? Particularly the side illumination. I found the fogs in the Passport I had to be more effective than the ones in the 23 RTL.

Well, I haven't driven with them at night yet as I just installed them yesterday. They are definitely brighter than OEM but I haven't had a change to gauge the throw yet. I'll report back once I do.

They do have a seemingly good heat sink with a small fan so I assume should be cool enough. The rear of the housing is quite open to airflow as well.
 
Keep in mind that fog lights are meant for you to be seen in the fog, not so much as for you to see.
That's a secondary purpose and more for the rear fog light (if equipped). Primary purpose is light throw at a lower angle than the headlights so it doesn't reflect back into your eyes. It reflects over your head instead.

Unfortunately they've become mostly cosmetic.
 
They actually have another style, a "switchback" model with yellow and white lights. Turn on the first time for white, the second time for yellow. I'm about ready to get a set of the yellow models. For those who have installed them, can you aim them at all? The factory lights are a joke.

Yes, the housing can be aimed up/down. Note the adjustment at the bottom. Grabbed from this thread:
