Replacement of a Honda Civic headlight

Model: Honda Civic MK 8 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Headlight

Today we will see how to replace the front headlight of a Honda Civic (2006-2012). Let's start the operation by opening the front hood, then we remove the plastic panel above the radiator grille and remove the fixing screws of the grille with a 5mm socket wrench. After that, we unscrew the screws holding the front bumper in place and remove it as shown in the video, then we unscrew the two bumper brackets with a 10mm wrench. Now, always with a 10mm wrench, we remove the two fixing screws above the headlight to then remove it from its seat, then we disconnect the bulb connectors from the back of the headlight and remove it completely, finally we install a new headlight following the reverse procedure.
