This is regardless of sport/non-sport. I will also inform you that H8 & H11 bulbs are the exact same size/housing/etc. The ONLY difference is the wattage.

***CORRECTION - The H11 has one pin that is slightly larger. Conflicting information says some still fit, some manufacturers make the pins the same, etc.

...now the question is - do you think the coupe uses a different harness or housing? Or can we sedan guys get the H11 for a brighter fog?

***OBVIOUSLY - The actual connector is going to be a tad different due to the correction above, but question remains the same granted they fit with minor adjustment. Is the wire gauge different to support the H11's? Or are they the same and we can do it on the sedan?

I have a 2010 Sport Coupe, and no way will H11s fit in there.
I just changed them, and used PIAA H1s.

Use these, yes they are more expensive, but PIAA is a top brand.
55W = 110W Meaning they are 55w with the brightness of 110W

I don't know what to tell you. I couldn't imagine the bulb of the fog changed from 10 to 11, but that info is directly out of my 11 manual. Check yours and report back.

FML, lol. They need to keep EVERYTHING on this forum separated by sedan and coupe. So, I know the sedan went fogs in the bumper in 2010, but they waited to do the same on the front of the coupe until 2011? WTF.

We're talking about the coupe man. All g37 coupes until 2011 used H1 bulbs inside the headlights. 2011s use bumper mounted H11.

ACTUALLY I am the OP and I was talking about the SEDAN. lol


...anyway, yeah I never knew the re-design for the fogs in 2010 only applied to the sedan and the coupe didn't get it until 2011.
