Edit - **** I thought you meant removing the bumper then the regular headlights.

I'll go back to my hole now.

LOL, how would I go about removing the bumper. I know it has to screws on each side by the tire's and there are about 4 more by the radiator. What else am I missing........?

Nothing else, just the 2 screws in each fender well, and the 3 screw by the latch in the middle. It's pretty simple, but if it's not coming off it's because you have to wiggle each side of the bumper to get it loose from the plastic peice that the bumper screws into. Don't be afraid to man hand your stock bumper, it's pretty flexible, you kind of have to peal the bumper away at the fenders. Then the bumper should just fall off, sorry I'm have trouble explaining what to do. It should'n take more than 2 secs once the screws are all out. goodluck

Your forgetting the screws hidden behind the corner lights. Unbolt the corners (one bolt, ontop of them under the hood) then slide the corners out(pull away from front of the car) and you will see one more Phillips.

That is the hard way. Just take the screws off in the inner fender by the tires and then take out your bumper lights. There is 2 ten millimeter bolts behind each light. Take them out and the entire bumper and support comes off. Then you can get to the hidden bolt on the bottom of the headlight that is holding it on.

when I put in my headlights on my 90 sedan.. I removed the screws from the wheel wells two on each side.. I removed the turning lights... then took off the bolts that were behind that.... then just wiggled the bumper a bit and it pulled right off.... I would assume its the same thing.. I got my headlights off of a crx in the junkyard
