Does anyone have a write up on installing aftermarket headlights. There not one peice. I tried taking off the fender. Didnt do diddly. Im pretty sure i have to take off my front bumper, but, the screws are rusted and almost rounded. If anyones got any ideas i need to get this put on today, before it snows again. Thanx.

 

well if you have an ek, youll have to take off the bumper for this. you can barely take out the headlights with it still on (if you have an ek) but its risky and the grill gets in the way, so its easier and safer to take off your bumper... not hard at all

 

yeah i forget to say...i have an eg. 94 2 dr EX

 

have you just tried directly taking the headlights out? cuz im sure it shouldnt be hard at all, they should just come right out, but i may be wrong

*edit: dont answer too much, i know trial users only get 5 posts a day so post wisely

 

*** Noob Question ***
what are the differences in body styles

ie..

for instance he has a 94 2 dr EX, which = ?

EK = ?
EG = ?
HK = ?
IE = ETC!!! (LOL) sorry for the noob question

would be good to add to the FAQ, unless its there and i overlooked it

 

ef = '88-'91
eg = '92-'95
ek = '96-'00 (except for si, thats em1)
es = '01-up

*edit here's a list of all your chassis codes (bout 1/3 down the page)

Take the bumper off. There are two 10mm bolts aligning the bottom of the headlight.

 

ok so i have to take the bumper off. Except the screws holding the bumper to the front support are almost rounded and rusted. Is there any way to get these off. I dont think i can cut them, because there threaded in. Any more ideas?

 

for eg, u dont need to take out the front bumper, and even if you want, ur screw is rusted get some WD40 or any kind of LUBE for rusty screws and get the screw out.

 

if i dont need to take off the front bumper...than how to i get them in. the bolt nearest the grill, cant maneuver around it. help... snow is coming.
