DIY headlights... ?

I know the DIY on this site shows how to remove the bumber. But, is it required that I remove the front bumper on my 2k3 EX to remove the headlight assembly?
I've never seen anyone clear their headlights before and am thinking of doing it.

Thanks,
RD

yes man you gotta. It's easy all you need to do is pop off the 4 tabs under the hood, the 6 tabs under the bottom of the bumper, and unscrew the two screws in the wheel wells and two screws under the bumper. Took me and my friend a record 2 minutes.

i never completely took off the front bumper, just took off the 2 screws on each side by the wheel well, and pop the 4 clips under the hood.....that was enough room for me to get the lights out

yes all you have to do is remove the top screws and scoot it forward.

yes, remove the bumper will make life easier

and after you do it enough times, it will become second nature, it takes me about 3 minutes to remove my front bumper
