Changing a headlight

I need to change the driverside headlight in my 95 Integra. Can I do this without removing the bumper? Is there some trick I'm not seeing? Thanks!

Get yourself a manual, that will be the best investment you can get for your car.

Are you just changing the bulb or the entire headlight assembly?

I actually have the Haines manual...I forgot about that. I'm changing the whole headlight. Its completely dead from moisture.

Remove the screw for the corner lamps and pull the housing out of the bumper cover and unplug the lights. Then, there are about ten bolts holding the top of the bumper on, and a half dozen or so on the bottom along with a handful of clips. After they're all removed, the bumper should just slide right off. Then you have only a couple 10mm bolts and the headlight housing should come off. Reverse procedure to install.
