    Tips to make your experience easier after watching this video:
    1. You do NOT need to remove the coolant overflow reservoir hose. Just lift reservoir up and put it off to the side with hose attached. Less chance of spilling any coolant.
    2. You do NOT need to remove the right front tire. Just turn the steering all the way to the left to allow access through the wheel well liner.
    Other than that, great how-to video!

    Definitely the best video on how-to do both low beam headlights on this version Honda Civic. Excellent video quality and detailed explanation.

    I remember the old days where you undid 3 screws in front of the headlight, with nothin in the way, took the trim ring off, popped he old bulb out and replaced it and put the 3 screws back in. 1 mins later you weren't swearing up and down and already moving on with your life.

      And when you changed the old headlight, you got a brand new clear lens that would never yellow or cloud up.....and for cheaper than you now pay for just a bulb.....sigh.....

    Thanks. I was able to change the bulbs in 10 minutes. I did as others suggested and turned the wheel to the left for the passenger side bulb.

      I actually think he did it so he could show more on camera. It's ok if you have a compressor handy, otherwise, just turning the wheel is much easier to think about.

    Kudos for demonstrating both sides. Most videos I've seen only show the easy one (left side or driver's side in the USA). Even though removing the tire on the right side improved your video it's quicker if you just turn the steering to the left to provide a little extra space. Also, I found that there's a plastic clip to remove in the fender well. Great video. Thanks for posting. You would probably get more views if you edited your title to add "BOTH sides". :)

    Thanks, nice to see another video showing this, much appreciated. Taking out the bottom bolt seems like a good idea. Not sure what Honda was thinking here, it' just doesn't seem like something they'd normally do, but it is, what it is.

    Thank you so much for the video! My right headlight bulb burned out and I changed the left one by myself followed your video but could not change the right one because of lacking equipment. Also when I was working on the left one, I found my coolant reservoir is below min. I went to my local jiffy lube, and the guy didn't go through the panel, he use a screwdriver and hand to push for several minutes and finally get the light off and then install the new one. I tried that by myself but not work. I don't know how he does but he did it. All he charged is $5.99 for the coolant and tips. I have $10 cash on my hand and he said that is fine.😂

    • @OEMEangg
      @OEMEangg  Год назад +5

      Try taking out the bulb with the plug still connected. Then you can use a small flat head screwdriver. Just BE CAREFUL to avoid breaking the plastic clip on the connector.

      It must seat flat to create a seal. Try to reinstall.
