To replace the headlight bulb on a Honda Civic, remove the rivets securing the bumper, located at the bottom, inside the wheel arches, and directly under the bonnet. This will allow you to remove the plastic covers and the front bumper itself.

Now, the bolts securing the bumper from the top and bottom can be unscrewed, and the headlamp can be removed after disconnecting its connector. The bulb can be rotated at the back of the headlamp and removed from its housing.

Once the new bulb is inserted, reinstall the headlamp.
