Default Easy question..

How have you people who have actually<U></U> changed your front turnsignal bulbs in your 96-00 civics gone about it. It looks like I have to take apart a lot of parts just for these simple bulbs. Thanks and take care.

you have to take off the bumper, and then take out the headlight. Its really not that difficult

Pretty easy,
1. pop your hood open it
2. located your headlight and corner turn signal
3. look at the wires remove them outta the socket hole.
4. change the light blubs

if you wanna get all serious remove the bumper and losen the screws from the headlights.

wtf? theres no way you can reach the turn signal socket without taking the headlight out. at least on si's, i doubt any other 6th gen would be different.

partially remove you fender splash shield near the headlight. Then reach your hand in there, until you fill the bulb socket, twist it and pull it out, and replace bulb.
