@@provrorsbarn okay, I would imagine the previous owner has bonded them or glued them as they never get glued in the factory, did you manage to get them out?
@@doolanbrian Yea no worries it just took a bit long because I got confused why they didnt release. But pretty sure they where glued from the factory. The bulbs where originals.
@@smarterthenyou001 it’s really common unfortunately they do come apart overtime so you could glue it back on to the indicator section. Just make sure you don’t glue onto the body of the car! eventually it probably will come apart again though so it’s better to replace
They can be marginally loose, but if it’s unsightly, then you might have broken clips, strip them out and see if the clios are damaged. I suppose is the best thing!
For some reason I cannot pull the bulb out of the socket to replace with the new LED one. I already shattered one of them trying to put it out, so I guess I will need to replace the whole socket ?
Yes .. perhaps there is some corrosion in there and it has caused the bulb to seize in place , new socket required or maybe try and find one from a car breakers yard 🙂👍
Hello everyone, I have a question for you. Can the original fk8 racing chair be transferred to FK7? Are the screw hole positions and electrical plugs the same? Thanks⋯⋯
@@Nmysliw most likely, the clip which holds it in place, is either broken or stressed to a point where it’s no longer making good contact so most likely you will need to replace one, you can pick up pretty cheap ones on eBay🙂
Hey there i dont have an FC on site right now to do this.. but hopefully soon. Just to make sure when you say FC you mean the sedan ? What country are you in ??
@@doolanbrian yeah one of them lost its clear housing and was exposed to direct rain, when i finally decided to replace them i realized they didn't work at all anymore
@@mkinitcpio hmm ok 🤔 have you tried to replace one simple bulb ? After that it’s a matter of pulling fuses and looking for danaged ones , I wouldn’t have thought there is specifically one fuse for them and nothing else but I stand to be corrected , everything else working okay?
I’m going to have to take a guess on this one as I’m unsure, but I think the CP stands for a candlepower, so I’d imagine the one with the larger number will be slightly brighter, but again I stand to be corrected!
@Brian Doolan at Fitzpatricks Garage Kildare do you happen to know the right words to type in, what ever I'm typing doesn't come up with the correct parts?
It’s just a regular parking / side light bulb .. you can get it at any dealer or motor parts supplier .. i think it’s a w5w but I’m away from the garage today ! 🙂 thanks for watching
@@muzamil.fc2 it’s never happened to me so I can’t be sure but that’s a guess that it’s fallen down into the wing liner so you might need to strip that back, if you are unfamiliar with how that works, any general mechanic will be able to help
They shouldn’t be illegal , these type of side running lights are on Volvo and sometimes BMW and in this case Honda .. My understanding is that they are legal everywhere, I wonder is it the front fog lights down low that might be illegal to use unless it’s adverse weather in Switzerland?
I'm also wondering how to turn it off when I'm on high beams. it's not illegal in my country (probably) but is somewhat confusing for peoples. happened once at a red light, someone asked me if I was in distress because my side orange lights was on... sic

Hey 👋 I’m glad this was helpful , thanks for watching!!
Was not looking forward to that job - but your video has helped immensely. Thank you
@@burningissues6760 i’m glad you found it useful. Hopefully you breeze through the job!
Just saw mine was full of water and need to get it out. You sir, are amazing. Thank you
God I’m glad it was helpful so !!
thanks very helpful for replacing the outer housing of one of my blinker that mysteriously disappeared with the noname parts i ordered off amazon
Glad this helped , thanks for watching !!!
Brilliant. That's saved me £244 that the Honda main dealer wanted to charge me!
Nice one, glad this helped!
I was quoted £ 27.00 from Stoneacre.
Came in useful when I had to do this today to dry mine out. Another useful video. Cheers.
Nice one Charles, thank you for watching!
thanks buddy, just bought my first civic 2020, this may serve as backup side marker
Glad it was helpful, thanks for watching
Mine where glued on by the factory! So fun!
Yikes 😳 never came across that before .. did you purchase the vehicle new?

Thank you so much! Saved me £150.

Hi Brian! Love the vid. Just a question. Can you replace them with LED Bulb? If yes, what specification?
You can replace them with LEDs, but none made by Honda, but if you go into eBay, you can find aftermarket ones🙂🙂
Great local video, it was very handy, thanks 😅!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you! Easy fix. Any chance do you know what bulb is needed as mine have both packed in?
@@mikemaou8 it’s the same bulb as you would use for your license plates in your rear bumper👍
Thanks! That was easy.
@@aegis3d 🙂🙂
hey random question but I had the clear part the outer case come off today just wondering if I should glue it back down ?
@@smarterthenyou001 it’s really common unfortunately they do come apart overtime so you could glue it back on to the indicator section. Just make sure you don’t glue onto the body of the car! eventually it probably will come apart again though so it’s better to replace
Mine seem loose. Both sides. Not sure if the clips are broken. Not had chance to look. They haven't fallen off but feel wobbly if that makes sense
They can be marginally loose, but if it’s unsightly, then you might have broken clips, strip them out and see if the clios are damaged. I suppose is the best thing!

Yes .. perhaps there is some corrosion in there and it has caused the bulb to seize in place , new socket required or maybe try and find one from a car breakers yard 🙂👍
Jus wondering if that's a functioning blinker or jus a hazard thing half lights on kinda light
It’s basically just a parking light on high spec cars and it’s an indicator on low spec versions 🙂
Thanks, I'll try that. Lol first I don't even know what's that side light called. Now I know lol
Thanks for watching, hopefully it works okay for you!
Can it be reach vis the fend gaps through the engine bay, or its better to go through the wheel arch?
It would be too difficult to go through the engine bay, so this method is the most accessible👍🙂
Thank you bro!
Thanks for watching!!
Thank you sir! very helpful.
Glad it helped. Thank you for watching
Hello everyone, I have a question for you. Can the original fk8 racing chair be transferred to FK7? Are the screw hole positions and electrical plugs the same? Thanks⋯⋯
Good question.. unfortunately I don’t know the answer 🫤 sorry !
Direct replacement apparently
Dear Brian, could you make a video with LED side turn signals?
@@wiz4rd1970 are you thinking that you want to replace a blown LED indicator on your vehicle?🙂
@@doolanbrian Yes 😉
@@wiz4rd1970 I’ve never had to do them !! Had your LEDs failed on the front indicator ? 🙂
My side marker keeps popping out? I think I'll need a new one since it won't stay in place, maybe a piece broke off?
@@Nmysliw most likely, the clip which holds it in place, is either broken or stressed to a point where it’s no longer making good contact so most likely you will need to replace one, you can pick up pretty cheap ones on eBay🙂
Does it work for the 2016 also this way? I think it does
Did you have the generation 10 in 2016 in your country, if you are in the USA then I think you did
I’m at lost. I pulled so hard on my bulb but whatever I do the light will not come off. Is there any solution to this ?
@@coconutrat7931 do you mean the bulb is stuck in the holder?
@@doolanbrian Yes the bulb is stuck in the holder.
Good video explanation - Thanks
Thanks for watching Paul !!
Perfect! Thanks

Hi Brian! Can you replace them with LED bulbs? If yes, which specific size is it?
Hi bro, can you make a video on how to change the rear license plate light on the Civic FC?
Hey there i dont have an FC on site right now to do this.. but hopefully soon. Just to make sure when you say FC you mean the sedan ? What country are you in ??
@@doolanbrian Yes! The 10th Gen Sedan Civic. I appreciate your vids, Brian! helpful and informative.
@@bruceyourface8330 thanks for the kind words, next time I have one in stock I will do this
I chsnge mine buy the both the lights suddenly stop working. What happen?
Water can get into them .. that is the most common issue
does anyone know which fuse protect these lights? its not really clear in the manual
Have your ones stopped working?
@@doolanbrian yeah one of them lost its clear housing and was exposed to direct rain, when i finally decided to replace them i realized they didn't work at all anymore
@@mkinitcpio hmm ok 🤔 have you tried to replace one simple bulb ? After that it’s a matter of pulling fuses and looking for danaged ones , I wouldn’t have thought there is specifically one fuse for them and nothing else but I stand to be corrected , everything else working okay?
Brian, if the cover (lens of the unit) comes off, is it a click in or is the glue gone it?
You can try and glue it but sometimes they fall apart again ! Probably easier just to buy a new one, I think they are circa €120
@@doolanbrianDoesn't the clip hold it in?
@@umpus clip holds it in 👍
@@doolanbrian the clear cover came off mine. Probably laying along the road somewhere ffs.
@@umpus yes , I have seen this, as they get older and especially ones that have water ingress. Unfortunately, the plastic cover can separate 😞
what is the difference between 12 V 5W, 12 V 5W 2CP, 12 V 5 W 3CP car bulbs ?
I’m going to have to take a guess on this one as I’m unsure, but I think the CP stands for a candlepower, so I’d imagine the one with the larger number will be slightly brighter, but again I stand to be corrected!
ok thanks@@doolanbrian
Cheers
Is there a cheap reliable place to get them from?
I think about €120 from dealer in ireland but I’m sure there is less expensive on eBay 🙂
