How do you change the front signal lamps on a 2000 Accord? Does it require removing the bumper, fender, grille?

I'm guessing you just mean the turn signals? from the looks of it I'd say it's somewhat similar to the 94-97 which requires you to remove the bumper to take out the headlights as they're all one piece. If it's just the bulb you're looking to change out then it should be reachable from inside the engine bay

there is no need to remove the bumber, infact it wont help you. you have to undo some of screws holding the fender well lining, and your golden.

I have changed the headlight without a problem. It is the turn signal that is the pain. If I can just undo the lining of the wheelwell that should do it eh? This is getting me....a 1.50 bulb and a car dealer wants 400 to change it. crap a monkey.

$400?? Tell me you forgot the decimal point before to 2 zeros. Hell, if you meant $400, then they must be thinking you want to replace the headlight assemblies, as there's no way they would charge you that to replace ANY bulb.

Like skingfreak said, just pull back part of the fender lining and stick your arm in there.
