Anyone know how to replace headlights?
Hey, I'm curious. How easy is it to replace my front headlights? The shop wants 3hrs of labour to replace. That seems really high to me. It only looks like 4 screws and a direct plug and play fit. I have an '07 civic 4dr
you usually have to take off the front bumper as well. Then maybe loosen the fenders, bt from there yeah its just 4 bolts and a harness or two. Shops always overestimate so that when it's slightly cheaper than what htey originally said you're happy about it.
yeah its hella simple.
Pop the hood, unscrew bumper, yank bumper, place bumper on somethin soft so no scratches, unscrew the four screws on each headlight, should be a metal bracket thingy holding them each in, take it off.
Then take your better headlights and put them on that metal bracket, plug them in, then screw the four screws back in again. Then put the bumper back on and screw 'er in. Then put the hood down and your good.
Probably 2-3 hours by yourself, shorter with a friend.
