Thanks for the video and part number. I installed some on my 2013 altima s like you said plug and play
You are very welcome!
Yesterday I had one of the most surreal nights of my life. Went out at 8pm to find a good place to aim my headlights and came back at 3am...
I was kicked out of places three times 😂
After all I can say the Dorman replacement is freaking awesome, even with my older and weaker overtime led lights. Can't wait until I get one of those 20k lumens ones.
Thanks mate. I just installed my fog lights bought through your Link. Did it myself and saved hundreds of dollars
Heck yeah man. Thats awesome!
I'm glad I could help you!
If you ever have any questions about something else on your car feel free to ask and I'll try and make a video to help you out.
Please consider subscribing!
If you haven't already.
Yes indeed Young Man...I'll be working on mine this coming weekend. Excellent Video, Thank You 😎
Thank You!
Your video is on point...simple and straightforward....unfortunately Amazon doesn't have anymore.
if you search the part number or google it i think you can find them. I know sadly my link isnt good still.
Awesome video for doing this. All the other videos I've seen you had to wire into the fuse panel add a switch ect.
Think I'll be getting this ASAP now...
Glad they included the wires to make the setup easier. Idk about going the factory oem route cause I hate nissans lighting factory bs. But I’ll be getting something after market. Thanks. I’m currently about to replace my headlight assembly so I’m taking off the bumper. Found this video and decided to check it out. Thanks man. The dim low beams you’re experiencing you can thank Nissan for. It’s the reason I’m changing mine out now before I get the fog lights. Makes all the difference in the world after you replace them. Seen a few friends with the exact same car replace their and it’s literally a night and day change. To any Altima drivers out there. Don’t even bother replacing your headlight bulbs to hid or led. The problem is the factory oem headlight assembly. Until you change those asap, no leds or hids in the world will help you. I replaced my leds thinking it would be better. And it was for about 8 months. Then reality kicked in. I’m finally changing it but trust me, change your factory headlights until nissan recalls their bs headlights. Also if you do replace your assemblies. Keep the original Nissan junk so when the recall does happen. You can throw the bs ones back on (time consuming I know but will be worth it) and Nissan can change them out when that time comes! And it is coming! There are too many of us altima drivers out there experiencing the same low beam problems for them not to have the recall. My opinion is they are waiting for a lot of people to just replace theirs through Nissan before they roll out the recall.
Preach it brother!!!! I'm getting led's and assemblies all at the same time her VERY soon!!! I'm driving 40miles every night at 11pm and all this lighting problems is just to dangerous to keep putting off!
Same issue here replaced the low beams with LED didn't help at all so I just went and bought an entire set of headlights becuase it's gotten to the point to where its dangerous to drive at night and constantly using high beams isn't safe for others they need to fix this.
I just got my recall done last week. I set up the RO in August and could only drive with high beams until they replaced the assemblies.
I hit a damn armadillo and busted my LH fog lens. Dealer wants $272 out the door to replace a single lens. This dude here just helped me save most of that bc I only need the light assembly, not the whole kit. Thanks!
I stopped going up my favorite road, at 5am, because the Low-Beams make it near impossible to react to any wildlife (deer) jumping out into the road, and there's just enough oncoming traffic that running the high beams is pointless.
Not to mention any other light source is going to pretty much mute the Altima's stock low beams, making it even more dangerous to drive at night.
I had t his exact experience. I had the recall a year or so ago and they denied me said that the laminate wasn't coming off. BULLSHIT liars. It's like letting the police investigate themselves. Anyway, I called a local garage i respect last week. $810 to replace both headlight assemblies. I bought both off amazon for $150. Spent another $150 on jack stands, hydraulic jack, and a few other misc. tools i needed. Took me about 4 hours but I replaced everything. They look great. They shine great. They're beautifully bright. I saved almost 600 bucks doing it myself.
Bro you help so much making this video!!!! Your the GOAT im going to subscribe
Thank you!!!
My Altima's low beam light is so dark at night. Your video gives me the perfect solution to that problem. Thanks you! I already sub you. Keep making those great videos.
The chrome in the "Projector" housing will go bad... making the low beams dim at night. I replaced the housing and try to stay away from high heat brighter bulbs (use standard bulbs)
Thank you very much!!
Thanks for including the comparisons of low beams vs fog lights plus low beams, and high beams--this makes it very clear how much better adding fog lights can be.
I'm going to replace my Headlight Assembly soon, and then move onto fog lights. They really do make a huge difference.
Honestly, the only reason i'm just now deciding to replace the HL Assembly is because i've got this rather nasty impact hole on the bottom left of my Front Bumper Cover. Easier to just replace the cover, than to do all the extra work of sanding, covering, and re-painting. And since i'll be replacing the cover, i may as well modify both light assemblies.
Dude loved the video you are a BEAST 😊
Thank you very much!!
My 03 Altima was pre wired like this too. Found the plugs when I was replacing wheel fender liner. Was also pre wired for outside ambient temp which my car didn’t have showing in the cluster.
Yeah they use the same wiring harness for all the trim levels. I found a bunch of factory options that I want to upgrade on my car. Like the blind spot monitoring stuff.
@@toolscarswithkris Did you ever do the Blind Spot Monitoring upgrade?
No I have not. But I think the blind spot monitoring sensor is in your door mirror. So it would probably be as easy as pulling the mirror off and see if the plug is in there.
Great video dude. Awesome job
Appreciate it!
Although the OEM kit is no longer available, there still is a way to do this if you have an S or SV model. The key is to locate the OEM combination switch with the fog light switch for a reasonable price. My way was to buy it used from a self service junk yard. Paid only $15 for one I pulled out of a 2013 Altima 3.5SL. This unfortunately was the only part I could obtain from this car as it had been picked over for several months before I got to it. The wire harness in the SL would not match what my S has anyway so I bought the two harnesses I needed from Nissan for $17 each on sale. These harnesses are the connection between the lights and the BCM. Then I bought aftermarket lights and trim covers. It is really nice to have the OEM set up for the cabin. When you turn on the fog lights, an indicator light comes on the instrument panel. That way you always know if the fog lights are on or not compared to aftermarket kits that have a button at the bottom left side of the instrument panel and no indicator light on the dash. I wouldn't have known about this had I not seen this video. Thanks dude.
Hello John, thank you for your comment. I am planning to install the foglight on my 2015 Nisan Altima S. I think I would like to use your method. I believe I can find a 2015 Nisan Altima S at the Wrench A Part in Lubbock, where I stay. What parts should I remove from the car in the junk yard in order to install the OEM version? I would love if you can further guide me. Thank you!
go to the Junkyard for next time, if its takes forever

This is the wires for OEM to work with switch
Great Video! Very Informative!💪👍
Glad it helped!
You did a great job on this video sir....top marks!
Thank you!
Will the fog lights come on with the parking light or only when the headlights are on?
How can I make this compatible with the 2015 Nissan Altima S 2.5?
This doesn't fit a 2015 Nissan Altima S Sedan 4-Door 2.5L 2488CC 152Cu. In. l4 GAS DOHC Naturally Aspirated
finally thank you so much
You are so very welcome
Is those fog light come with the bulbs
Thanks for the video my dude! Been looking to install a fog light in my 2014 altima. Unfortunately the item is out of stock now and Idk if there’s another item you think is similar to this with the kit.
Ohh dang. I would say search the part number and see if the kit is available on a different site. Or you could definitely go to an auto salvage yard and get the parts used from there!
The chrome in the "Projector" housing will go bad... making the low beams dim at night. I replaced the housing and try to stay away from high heat brighter bulbs (use standard bulbs)
This is exactly the conclusion I've come to with the research I've done on it. I want to get an aftermarket housing from a reputable brand and some decent LED bulbs.
@@toolscarswithkris any lights recommended?
So you're saying I'll probably have those wirings for fog lights in my altima 2016? 🤔 are there any fuses involved ? Installing/exchange maybe?
That's the newer body style. But I would guess they are there. The plastic cover where the lights would be should pop out from the front. Just find something to pry it off with and take a look. And I didn't have to put any fuses in. But there might be a spot in there fuse box if they don't turn on. But a lot of times the factory just fills all the options spots in the fuse box. It just isn't getting any power at the moment.
Great job dude! 👍🏽 Now I know what I have to do to install my fog lights. Mechanics be trying to overcharge for a job like this. Smh The low beam lighting on this particular body style is terrible. The projector style dims the low beam lights significantly. Can't see shit at night without using the fog lights and the high beams. You should definitely upgrade all your bulbs to LED. It'll help with night vision. Regular halogen💡are 🗑.
Indeed the projectors on this car are complete trash!!! I'm slowly putting LED lights all over there car. But I've read that the chrome on the inside of the projector gets burn residue all over it and that's the main reason they suck. So so I've been fighting with myself if I should get the bulbs first or if I need new assemblies. Because the bulbs wont help if the projectors themselves are toasted
@@toolscarswithkris Good point! That's exactly why I purchased a brand new headlight housing assembly from Ebay. I haven't installed them yet, but I will very soon. I've been running HID's in the low beams and LED's in the high beams because the highs blow the fuse with HID's. Have had it this way pretty much since I first bought the car brand new back in 2013. The lighting was good in the beginning with the HID's, but started getting dim as years went by. With the sunlight beaming on them over time also ruins them.
Ahh man. So that just confirms my theory. Even with LEDs it won't help much until I get new headlight assemblies to go with it!
@@toolscarswithkris there's apparently a lawsuit against Nissan regarding the assemblies... look online and check with your vin if you're eligible to get the assembly replaced at the dealership. Im hoping to get mine replaced in March
Yes following it ever since sometime last year. It already has settled and everything I'm just waiting for the recalls to go out now
My car already has fog lights, they just need to be replaced because one is out and missing the front plastic piece. Do I need to do all the steering wheel stuff or can I just plug and go with the lights since they should already be wired to work?
Yes. My car didn't have lights from the factory. So the car also didn't have a switch to operate the fog lights. That's why I had to do the steering wheel thing.
If your car already has a switch. You should be set.
Do the fog lights turn off automatically in sync with the low beams, if you have it on auto?
Yes
I respect your hard work but if you put the 2 screw that holds the light on please from the front to back that makes the job more easy is yes my opinion have good one
Yes I actually had the same thought when I first looked into doing the install. I don't remember exactly why i chose that it wouldn't work that way and they need to be installed from the back like as OEM. I think it was because the plastic trim bezel wouldn't fit in place properly. Because the bolt head would be in the way. But I want to say there was another reason also why I ultimately made the decision.
But thank you very much for your kind words!!
when you bought these did they come with the bulbs in them? and do you know what number they are if i wanna change them? like such as are they H11 like the headlights or?
They are H11 and yes they came with the bulbs already installed
Ok so they come with led already u didn’t have to change them
No LED's. They come with halogen bulbs already installed.
GREAT NISSAN.
I tried to replace one of the plugs, unfortunately, there is no such plug in my car, but I installed the new control arm. Please advise what can I do to install a plug like yours
If your vehicle come factory with a higher trim level that has fog lights you should be able to find a place to plug them in maybe. Or you can always splice into your low beam wires and they will come on with them
@@toolscarswithkris My car is S-Class if u know how to install plugs
I wanted to ask is there anyway that you can just put the Fog lights from the front without taking everything out, it seems to be only cover and two screws that i think can be installed thru the front, can you help me with that?
Ok so I originally thought the same thing! Then when I got to actually putting them in. I realized that one the lights have these alignment tabs on the wing things where the screw passes through.
So theoretically maybe you can maybe shave the tabs down. Because I think they will be in the way of the bezel snapping in over the light properly.
Or you can try and glue a nut to the back of the holes on the light. Then see if you can maneuver it into the hole and come from the front with a bolt to pull it all together. That would probably be the best way to try if you don't want to pull the plastic skid plates down out of the way or something.
Thank you very much.
Any idea where to get this still? I check everywhere at it says discontinued or unavailable.
Well that doesn’t bode well for either of us. Guess we’re going to the junkyard rip
The piece that goes on the wheel where did you get or how do you order it? Because it comes separate from the lights?
I'm not sure what you mean. Are you talking about the black trim peace that goes around the fog lights?
@@toolscarswithkris those of the directional On the steering wheel
Ohh the light switch lever thing. It was included in the kit that I bought. I left should be in the description of the video. But I'm sure it can also be bought separately or you can definitely pull it from another vehicle at a parts salvage yard.
Are you able to change the light bulbs of the fog light to LED?
Yes! Bulb number H11. Same as the headlight low beams.
@@toolscarswithkris perfect thanks!
very big help bro
Thank you! If you have any questions I can probably help with that also.
Tools & Cars With Kris i will buy it i hope been the same way as you video i just got change the switches on my steering wheel and pluging the fog lights
Yepp that should be all there is to it.
Please like the video and subscribe to the channel. I will be making all kinds of different videos with this car including maintenance and quick repairs. Maybe you'll find another helpful video.
Tools & Cars With Kris ok I will
Why are the headlights so low, Are they LED’s ?
They are halogen bulbs. And the chrome on the inside of the headlight assembly burns up from the heat and can no longer project the light forward.
amazing video, have you looked into replacing the stereo with the one with a screen? it will probably be a great video and will help us to
Yes actually I'd love to do that! But the unit I'd like to get is pretty little penny to buy! Maybe I could make a video on how to pull the oem head unit out of the dash if that could be helpful.
@@toolscarswithkris so you are not trying to put the OEM? I am trying to keep as much as OEM possible. they sell me the stereo for 200 with the camera. used of course
Ok. So you are talking about putting un the oem radio that comes with the navigation package from the dealership? Nor an aftermarket one?
@@toolscarswithkris yes sorry, i was in a different account. I want to know if i can put the oem rear camera. Like is all the wire harness already there?
I pulled the liner off the inside of my trunk lid and the plug for the camera seems to be there. I'm not sure about what it looks like behind the radio on the dash tho. I've never pulled my head unit out.
But I also looked at the location of where the camera itself mounts and that trim package comes with a different chrome trim piece that goes across the back of the trunk lid above the tag where the trunk release button and the tag lights are. There would be a third hole between the button, and the left tag light for the camera.
That’s good
Before you switched the steering column did you try to turn the fog lights on?
I did not. There isn't an on off switch for the fogs on the old controls. Im not sure how they would react if they even came on at all without a dedicated switch for them.
Oh okay well thank you! Going to be installing mine here soon! I got the parts just waiting for the weekend to come back to get it all done! Wish me luck haha
Yes good luck. It's a pretty easy job.
Cool
I'm in the process of buying the fog lights, but the link now says that they're out of stock, and there's another seller and they look alright but they're at 125 dlls :(
Aww man. I'm sorry. The link is old. I've been meaning to update it.
Google the part number and you might can find something that works for you
This samw step for 2018 Nissan Altima?
That is the newer body style. You can try and pull the cover off where the light goes and see if you can find the plug for it.
Awesome video thanks so much. I have a Canadian 2015 Altima, and there is an extra bulb in the fog lights that acts as the Daytime running light.
Id like to remove the DRL function from the fog lights and instead use the turn signal leds.
Can you offer guidance on how i would do that ? Would I need to splice one of the wires ?
I'd install a new set of fog lights as well as the LED DRL from ebay.
Yes I know with my model I've looked into the same thing. I found lights called "switch back led" and they do exact that.
On my vehicle the blinkers stay on and act as marker lights also. So the bulb would shine white for that function then switch back to yellow for the turn signal.
@@toolscarswithkris awesome. So how did you get the drl signal from the fogs to the switchback led ?
Do I need to disconnect the battery?
It's good practice just to be safe. so you don't short any thing out, pop a fuse, or worse case fry a wire! Just remember all your presets and stuff for you radio and dash will be reset. Just as if it would if your battery died or something.
can this be done to a 2019 altima?
If it don't have the same body style as the one in the video then I'm not sure. Bit if you pull the bezel off and can see the empty plug not being used. Then I would think so as long as you get the right parts.
What's the wiring harness part number?

@Bradford White
Hey bro I have a 2014 Altima sv and I have the fog light option already installed on my turn signal but my car doesn’t have fog lights. Weird I know I bought this car off the street and it was in a accident before I bought it . I was wondering if I remove the black plastic piece if it would reveal the fog light .
Would their be any way you can help me out with that
You might find the wires to plug one in behind plastic cover. Like I did in the video.
If the car was in a front end collision they probably went a cheaper route and didn't replace the fog lights along with the bumper. Is what it sound like.
If you don't see the plugs right away. Look further behind some stuff. Because they might have just tucked them away somewhere instead of routing then back in place.
Good luck 🤞
@@toolscarswithkris thank you I’m going to give it a try right now , how would you suggest taking out the black plastic cover
Same way I did in the video. A flathead screwdriver with a wide tip. Then carefully just pry it out while trying not to scratch the paint.
You're welcome. If your a subscriber. Don't hesitate to ask any questions. I'll always do my best to try and help.
Hey man I need the wire that connects to the fog light and the other cord can somebody please find it online for me
search the part numbers. you maybe can find a diagram with the correct part numbers
24033-3KA0B
Hard to track down I know
So I asked for a "something like that" at the pep boys and they told me they didnt have that. What now?
where can I get those fog lights
Link should be in the description. But I found them on amazon
Can the bulb be change to led?
Yes it sure can. The biggest thing you have to look for when changing the bulb type is whether it can fit in the provided space. But with the fog lights there is all the space in the world behind them. So you shouldn't have any problems with obstructions in the given space.
check diode dynamics for any kind of fog light you want for any car, they are great.
I'm hoping you heard about the class action law suit against Nissan which awarded owners reimbursement on replacement headlights or outright replacement. I just found about it this week. I'm hoping I can get my form processed in time. The low beams aren't supposed to be that dim and it is that way because of a defect in the reflector lamination.
Yes.. there was a deadline to have the form submitted by. But they were supposed to send out recall cards to everybody that needed it. And you needed that card in order to fill out the form. Which I never received. So now I'm having a really hard time trying to get them to fix mine
@@toolscarswithkris What's the point of a deadline? The lawyers are just as bad as Nissan.
Right. They just keep leading me in circles to when I try to get it fixed.. they tell me to call Nissan then email some people and eventually I always get led back to the Nissan settlement website where all the info is and I get nowhere
@@toolscarswithkris Well I emailed them and ordered the phone practically begging them to process it when filled out. I will let you know how it goes.
@@olternaut well I got the card and got the order but I have been waiting months for the replacement and still haven't got it as yet 🙂
Is this product discontinued ? 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Search Google for "part# 999F1-UZ000 fog lights" you should be able to find something. The link may not be good anymore. A lot of times that happens with only items you saved on Amazon.
I will look into it and try to update the link if I can. Thank you.
24033-3KA0B
Wires only
For Altima 2016 ??
I'm pretty sure that's the year that the body style got updated. So I don't think kit with my link will work for you. But if you do find the right lights and parts it might be the same installation process. Like all the wires and stuff might still be there I'm not sure
@@toolscarswithkris oh okay thank you very much. and thanks for the tip
The switch is a 180 bucks sold separately.
Google the part number in the description. You can find it as a kit for around $100.
But you try to buy the switch alone from an auto parts store it's going to cost about that.
Follow the second link to Amazon. Its in the description.
Its the same exact thing right from Nissan. The only difference is they raised the price to $160.
Phoenix audio radios has switch cheaper
can i put leds in the fog? def buying
Yes you can. I the bulb number Is H11 say as the low beam in the headlights
Yeah no need, just destroy your bumper LOL
Anyway, soon you'll be able to get a free replacement from Nissan, check your mail at some point next year for the recall.
I would love if they gave out a recall. They definitely need to. Seeing how it's a manufacturing problem that causes all the chrome on the inside of your projectors to burn and no longer reflect the light and work properly anymore!!
@@toolscarswithkris is already being approved. These lighs are extremely dangerous. Once I drove over a median and scratch the bottom of the car.
I believe it. At night time when cars pass me from the opposite direction. I'll literally literally be hugging my steering wheel trying to look over my hood and see the road ahead sometimes!!!
It's crazy!!
@@toolscarswithkris yeah that situation is pretty bad, you can't see the road. Being afraid of get off the lane...
I survived for quite a while with super bight fog lights. Yesterday I did the job replacing the light assembly. A hell of a job for only one person.
For anyone who want to do the job themselves, they have until October 25, 2021 to buy the headlight assembly and get reimbursed. After that the only option is to let the dealer do it with more crappy Nissan replacement. Nissan said that corrected the problem since 2018, but I don't believe it.
I totally agree. I've researched a bunch of different lights trying to find the best price. Well also trying not to end up with some cheap knockoff headlights. Because the one thing I know for certain is. I'm not buying them from Nissan because I don't want to end up in the same boat again 5 years down the road!!!
this only fits 13-15 altima sedan
Thank you. Maybe I had a typo when doing my research. Or it looks like the actual lights and Parks themselves work but then youll have to source a difference bezel. Not completely sure
No way that’s all genuine for only $70. That’s a crackhead price.
Crazy right! Came in the Nissan box and everything. Even has the logo on the glass. All legit oem parts right from Nissan!
Tools & Cars With Kris just looked it up for myself. Seems legit. Must be old stock or something. The indicator/turn signal switch alone goes for $155(the *lowest* price I’ve seen). Last week, I was looking for just the switch and the fog light covers. Wow...glad this video came up in my recommendations. Just ordered this kit literally 15 minutes ago. And nice installation video. Main caveat with these Nissans is the transmissions. Mine went out at under 50,000 miles. But other than that, these Nissans(Altimas especially) are a workhorse.
Yes the cvt always has me nervous! I'm at right under 100k on the dash. I'm thinking about swapping the fluids out. But the Nissan brand cvt oil isn't cheap at all!! They claim it lasts a lifetime. But thats just not possible with any fluids.
And I got real lucky with this find. I was going to pull the parts myself from the salvage yard and the price came out to be almost the same when I tried to add it up online from the pricing menu on the website
Tools & Cars With Kris CHANGE THE FLUID ASAP!!! The manual even says to change it every 60,000 which I think is a lie. Nissan *wants* you to change it every 60,000 miles(according to the manual) because they know it may fail before then. The saying that the original fluid is “good for life” is a fairytale made up by some Nissan “mechanics” so you’ll go too long with the old dirty fluid until the transmission breaks down. In my opinion, the fluid should be changed every 40-50,000 miles. You should change the fluid whenever you can since you say you’re just under a 100,000 miles. They can’t tell you no they won’t change the fluid, since you’ll be paying for it. Just change the fluid as soon as you can.
Dude you talk like a French bulldog 😅
No more Nissan for my family and relatives. Their warranty for this mess turned me off completely. Nissan vehicles are garbage.
