I looked on H-T.. google too. Couldn't find a thing!

Do i really need to remove the bumper to remove my headlights??

Unless you've already taken out the lower bolts holding it on, yeah.

C'mon, the bumper is all of 4 bolts and 4 screws don't be a loser just do it.

no problem with my lazyness.. the problem is the probabilities that the bolts are rusted out!

where would i buy new bolt?

You mean you dont have a pile of spares? What kind of honda guy are you?

I've had numerous EF's, never snapped a bolt taking off a bumper.

Brett, I'll be with all the intercoolers and such that you Honda turbo guys go through, your bumper's never on long enough for the bolts to rust :P

Most of the time my bumpers are held on with zipties and held up with intercoolers. Bolts and re-bar are for sissies.

There come the phrase : 2 tiewraps = 1 bolt!

I figured out I'd be 100x better doing all of this when I get to strip the car completely for repaint.. my headlights are yellowish and I cant see shit at night (even with highbeam its tricky). I have another month to wait! DOH!

Simon get off your ass and do your headlights and get the suspension off your eg!!!!!!! You can get rid of the yellow with the headlight installed though. Ask Mike at No Limits about something to use.
