Default Re: Headlight Help (Chitowntiger7)

if youre talking about the bulbs. on the back of each headlight thetre is a circular rubber boot, disconnect the electrical connector and pull off the boot (you may have to twist it) theres a wire clip that holds in the headlight bulb, depress it and move it ot he side then pull the light out and replace it with the new one. NOTE: when installign new bulbs be VEY VERY VERY careful not to tocuh the glass with your fingers, the oils ont hem can greatly reduce the life of the bulbs.

if you want to take out he whole headligh housing>>>>>

most likely its a very similar procedure to my car (03 civic si)


youve got 4(?) bolts on the bottom of your bumper, a bunch fo those pop up black clips on top, and i belive 1 more bolt in each fender well, where the bumper cover meets the fender.


after that there should be 4 bolts on each headlight to remove it. 2 on top, one on the front and one on each side.


youl need a few metric sockets, and a flathead screwdriver to pop out the black clips on the top of the bumper.
