About 3 hours. I followed all steps as indicated on the DIY. Problem was to remove clips under the cover. I broked 3 . The cost is 3.50$ for each. I encourage you to do it, you will be glad about the result.

Clearing the headlights is an aquired taste. I actually prefer the stock look over the cleared look.

Stock look is ok. It was weird at first too see headlights without the amber piece, but it's growing on me already.

I think Honda might even do something to the headlights for say, the 2004 Civs or smthg. If you look back to the 6th gen, the headlights were cleared come the third year or so, I think...

Where in my previous post did you see "clips on the inside" ??? I said that clips were under the cover bumper. Maybe that the exact word should be tabs instead of clips.
