idk if everyone in the comments is joking or not but just in case - this is for replacing the ENTIRE tail light (i.e. the plastic housing he takes out) you DO NOT need to do all this to replace a burnt bulb lol, just remove the trunk liner like he did in the first step and you can pull the bulbs out from the back to put in a new one. Save yourself the time and embarrassment, don't pull your damn bumper off 😂😂

this helped me get my tinted taillights in, thank you 🙏

[@dearmepa1]

I’m ok….no. I’m calling my mechanic 😂😂😂

[@ilovetotri23]

I thank you greatly for the video! This has helped me and countless others save so much money! I looked for your trim line in the description because so many things did not match what I was seeing when I looked at mine. I have had the pleasure of watching your video to the end now. It looks like you had the coupe. Sedan is slightly different. Overall, awesome video for us "shade tree mechanics". Thank you!!!

Yep gotta take the bumper cover off to change tail light....makes complete sense, Honda 😕

[@greenh7181]

Great video thanks

[@billwilliams4090]

if you are just replacing one tail light assembly, you don't need to pull the entire bumper off in fact it's better if you don't

[@julip7703]

how do you do the reflector lights pleaseeee

[@HoshiHikari]

How do you replace just the tail light cover?

[@montanayogi]

What a chore, but what a great detailed video! Thank you.

[@jason41483]

You’d think they would have designed this better so you don’t have to disassemble the entire back side of the car to replace one bulb

[@vdoggydogg3922]

this just showed me that I cannot do this myself.

[@user-oh2mk9jj7g]

This is absolutely RIDICULOUS to have to disassemble my car to change a dang light bulb!

[@SpikedTea_]

Yeah im not doing all of that. That bracket will not go back on

[@schnuurtchke]

The Honda needs new taillights Just joking 🙃

[@DivineIshma]

Wtf.... Why so complicated

[@Shadow-Banned-Conservative]

I'm not looking forward to this at all. What a horrible design.
