Car manual donest cover this but how do I remove my stock headlights?
2001 EX.

I took of the 2 top screws but its still held in place somewhere from the bottom. Is there some manual somewhere for some aftermarket kit that shows how to remove stock headlights?

 

You need to remove the front bumper to access the lower bolts, they're underneath the lamp on the front.

yup, u gotta take off the front bumber n theres 2 screws on the top holding the headlights, and also i believe theres 3 in the bottom.. removing headlights = pain in da *** lol

 

Great.

how hard is it to remove a bumper? Some instruction somewhere? My bumper is a bit off anyway, could use a tighter fit.


That or I guess I can take the bulb out and stick a hairdryer in there to dry them off.

 

jus unscrew the screws under the wheel well's and then pop the things off under the front.

It took me 2hrs to remove my bumper, headlamps, seperate the housings and black-off the chrome portion, re-seal the headlamps, re-install the headlamps, and re-install the bumper. It's not as tough as it seems.

 

meh well.

I need new headlamps. the damn focus lenses or whatever they are called have been removed. I just wanna get rid of those pos HIDs and put back in stock bulbs, thank god I still have the wiring for it.

May I suggest a bulb? I've had nothing but good luck with them for the past 7 years. They're Sylvania Plasma's. They may cost a little more than your normal bulb, but they do have a VERY long lifespan, and produce rather good lighting, without being obnoxious to other drivers.

 

retrofit them get some tyc housings and some bi xenons and your good to go.

 

Yes, I do wanna get rid of the HIDs and get some bright as sylvanies. problem is the dumbfuck who put them in removed the defuser

 

I can see whoever is driving in front of you....damn turn off high beam..
