nope you gotta take off the bumper. The grill will come out with the bumper. Just take out the 5-6 clips under the hood on top of the grill. 2 philip screws in the fenders. And like 2-3 10 mm screws under the front of the bumper.

Re: civic headlight \\QQ!!!!!! (-Gambit-)
its possible to take them out w/o removing the bumper...but its hard...get a haynes manual and it will pretty much walk you through the whole thing

Agreed. It's a 4 minute job. <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by -Gambit- »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">nope you gotta take off the bumper.

Follow these directions, it's cake. And then you won't have to worry about trying to wiggle the headlights out and messing something up.

Yeah, fenders are prone to get damaged in the above scenario.

I had actually taken a headlight out of a car with the front bumper on but it was a pain in the neck... dont do it, because you wont ever get it back in. Front bumper only take 2 mins to take off.... Do it the right way first, it will save you lots of time...

Re: (ekcivic9)
in not that it was a big issue, i was just wonderin if i could with out it. the bumper has slight modification to fit the IC its just a really tight fit. Its already done though, i had fog and moisture starting to build up, so i took em' off and \SLOWLY dried it out.
its a Y7 with a greddy kit.
