I'm trying to remove my bumper turn sgnal lights out of my 95 accord to tint them. But i have to idea how to get em out. I've searched all over google and acord sites and cnt find anything. Can anyone help?

The turn signals?

Get a long handled mechanic's phillips screw driver and you should see a small rectangular hole in the center lower grille on either side. I find it easiest to remove the upper grille and stick my arm down there to help guide the screw driver. There's a small plastic "cup" if you will that has a single screw in it. Stick the screw driver through that rectangular hole and into the cup and unscrew it, after awhile you should feel it starting to come loose. The outside of the lense has a tab that fits into the bumper so pull it outwards and swing it from the inside.

Thanks :D

btw, are you one of the guys who built the original accord because it seems like i could ask any question like what the exact bolt size is on any random* part and you would know it. haha

10 or 12mm

for a visual reference for others, the screws are right here

Where is the GReddy front??

Andryzzle

That's an old picture. I bought the greddy when i cracked the type r. Now the greddy is cracked so i'm going to a smaller lip.

I don't even thing the car was actually boosted at that point, I was just knocking out the intercooler fitment before doing the rest of the job to minimize down time.

Found what yo guys were talking about in time to realise that i didn't have a long enough screw driver to reach it. I ended up just taping off practically my whole bumper and doing it on the car(better since the can was running low and it sprayed better holding it upright instead of strait down). looks pretty good. No runs and the blinks still show through in the daylight

Lol, which is why I explicitly said a longer mechanics screw driver

But glad you got it taken care of - were they originally amber or clear?

bakerskater11

Originally amber, thats why i had to do so many coats to get it black. my tail/rear marker lights took 3coats 4 at most. These took 6-7. I made sure that i could still see em with every coat. cuz my rear ones are iffy during the day lol.

and we usually have longer screw drivers but we are in the process of quickly rebuilding our racecar so all our tools are all over the place. I just gave up after a half hour

lol, just an 85 mustang. Cheap racin..a beater nothin special

Brad_and_the_acc

Racing is cool, Cheap is AWESOME....
But a 4cyl stang??? Srsly..
Am I missing something?

bakerskater11

well, its circle track racing. And the track is very small. Small enough to stay in 2nd the whole track. Only v-8's that get out there are bump-to-pass which is pretty much a demolition derby with laps, and the late model cars. my class=4cyl only. Almost everyone runs 2.3L mustangs.

Andryzzle

somebody was running a gsr teg in that class near my house. he raped and just bounced the rev limiter the whole time haha.

bakerskater11

lol why a gsr teg??? are the rules there different? was his street legal. cuz our rules state:no headlights, no glass whatsoever except windshield and mirrors, all interior+dash must be removed ect. You can see my point. Why tear up a perfectly goo teg ):

Andryzzle

nope, dirt circle track. it was all gutted and what not, but the b18x was rocking for sure. he probably isn't a honda guy and saw it as a perfectly good race car.

WHYYYYYYY the only imports we got out there are like 1988 and below and their civics and sentras. and theres only a small handful of them
