Default Pulling the bumper 92 Accord EX

I need to pull the bumper off my car to install some new projector headlights, and I can't get the screws holding the plastic part on. got some rubber washer thing on the screws and they're just stripping out

any help? maybe pictures too?

Thanks

The driver side headlight assembly is broken on my 1993 Accord EX and I need to relace it.

I did buy a Chilton 1984-1995 repair manual and it has good information though the pics are a bit small. I am waiting for the Haynes 1990-1993 repair manual to arrive before I start. Do yourself a favor and buy the Haynes manual.

Theres screws under the headlight if im not mistaken.
best thing to do is pull your bumper lights remove those 2 bolts on each side
and unscrew bumper from fenders and bumper cover and support should come right out...

Almost. Thats what most people would do, and they would start pulling on the bumper trying to figure out how the hell that thing comes off. I went through the same deal.

First thing to do is, remove the 2 12mm nuts BEHIND the headlights. if you pop the hood, and look down at the back of the head light, theres a nut by the cruise control actuiator on the right side, and one by the battery tray on the left side. remove both of them.

Then, remove the front bumper lights. there is 1 philips screw holding it in.

Once the bumper light is removed, remove the 2 12mm bolts on each side.

After that is done, go under the bumper and remove any screws that hold the splash guard to the bumper. Alot of these things go missing over time, they are 10mm bolts. There should only be about 5-6 of them at most.

Once all that is removed, take out the 2 philips screws on either side of the bumper ends, in the wheel well, and the bumper will slide out.
