New S model in Louisiana

Purchased this Seltos for my daughter. Ended up with the S model because she had to have the Blue with the white top and I couldn't find an SX anywhere.
But I changed out all the lighting to LED's and it looks great. Loving it so far!

Is it possible for a night time pic? I like the selection
The color temperature is the same on all bulbs. Can't really tell in these photos.

Did you install the fog lights yourself? If so, how did you do it?

Yes. Just turn the tire away from you, then you will have to remove 3 of those plastic keepers in the shroud. Pull back the shroud and the bulb is right there. Took maybe 15 minutes for both sides.

Did you have to use any sort of adapter to get those headlights to work, odd did they fit right in? I know I struggled getting a good adapter for lights I bought for a 17 Forte
No, all plug and play.

I just ordered these from Amazon... the warning popped up on the fog light bulbs that they will not fit my '21 Seltos S.... I am trusting you nunyazz. Hopefully they will work as you say. :)

Yea, I got the same message. You should be good.
I bought both of these items.. as well and just tried to install them.i could not for the life of me turn out the fog lights twisted counterclockwise. Does not budge.. I am applying a lot of force to the point I’m scared I may break it..

Did you run into any issue by any chance on the twisting? Any recommendations?
Hi, I like that... can you explain how open the dome to change the lights?
I have the SX with the chicklet fogs so I can't say for certain. But it sounds like you're attempting to open the lamp from the front. Any fog lamp I've ever had has its bulb replaced from behind. Don't go reefing on the front of your fog I doubt thats the way it works. Gimmie a few minutes I'll see what I can find for you.
Here's a video of someone doing it on their India spec Seltos. Keep in mind this guys doing an LED upgrade so the bulb may look very different. But he's clearly going in from behind.


Unfortunately this is what your manual says.
Replacing front fog lamp (bulb/LED type)(if equipped)
If the front fog lamp (type A,B) does not operate, have the vehicle checked by an authorized Kia dealer.

Pricks.
