Headlight R&R: '95 Civic EX Sedan
So, the Chilton manual I've eagerly awaited for two weeks finally
came in the mail, and guess what? It says *absolutely nothing* about
replacing the headlight assembly - it just shows how to replace either a
sealed beam unit or halogen bulb. So what I *really* need (hopefully
today) is for someone to either list a step-by-step procedure, or link
me to one online. I'd really appreciate it, as I work Fri-Sun nights,
and was hoping to use the car this weekend...
I never thought I'd write this, but I wish I'd gotten the Haynes
manual, instead.

Both Chilton and Haynes are brutal. Bite the bullet and get the Helm
manual.

Too late for that for this job. Are there no procedures online, or
someone who can dash one off for me? I know I'm unknown in this group,
but I've helped a lot of people with Volvo problems over the years...

You have to remove the front bumper.
<http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/misc/manual_scans/civic/92-95_civic_front_bumper_removal.pdf>
There are bolts at the bottom of the headlamp that hold it
to the rad support. You cannot get at those until the bumper is off.
Haynes and Chilton are both . Get a Helm manual. It's the real thing.

Thanks for the diagram. I'm not clear on the spoiler: does the EX
have it, and what are the fasteners holding it on? And, most
importantly, can I do this without removing all the bumper components
completely? Can I get to the headlight bolts by lowering the left and
center of the bumper? I'm not sure I'm up to completely removing and
replacing a bumper I've never worked on. That "about $50" the dealer
quoted is becoming more appealing...

Thanks for the diagram. I'm not clear on the spoiler: does the EX
have it, and what are the fasteners holding it on? And, most
importantly, can I do this without removing all the bumper components
completely? Can I get to the headlight bolts by lowering the left and
center of the bumper? I'm not sure I'm up to completely removing and
replacing a bumper I've never worked on. That "about $50" the dealer
quoted is becoming more appealing...

A free online factory service manual for your Civic is
linked at http://www.honda.co.uk/car/owner/workshop.html. Go
to the electrical section, then exterior lights, etc. I see
a one page set of instsructions for your job. It still may
not be sufficient, but take a look.
Chilton's is superior to Haynes and often just duplicates
the factory service manual, in my experience.
