I just changed my parking lights, and i thought it was supposed to be easy. I broke those plastic clips because they just would not come out! Ya'll say clearing out the headlights are easy, but know i'm worried. Maybe i'm just stupid

i cleared my headlights yesterday and i broke a parking light too but i was just rushing... trick is to get them in halves all at once and not pull from one corner out. anyways look up the bulb online and go to autoparts store i think there like 4-7 bucks for stock ones i believe

The plastic clips that hold the black back piece and the clear lens together? Put a screwdriver under one side and lift up.
Oh well, Honda has more... and they aren't that expensive.

I'm talking about the clips that hold the black stuff up in the fender wheel well. As for clearing the headlights, was there anything ya'll did that wasn't in the DIY that might help me out

Go to the dealer for some more 'clips'...They usually keep them in stock


We all thought that you broke something else...oops

Yeah...the DIY doesn't really help. You just have to know what to do by experience but overall it's fairly ez.
