Thanks for the video. I replaced both headlight assemblies on my wife’s car. The fixtures were easier to remove and replace than I thought they’d be based on your video but the fasteners were mostly more difficult to remove for me than you. Your video made the job easy.
Excellent presentation, sir. You even mentioned disconnecting the negative battery terminal. I liked the detail of those wire harness connectors as well. Very clear with good audio as well.
Great video... Much appreciated. Just a note. When I replaced mine, I removed that strip of plastic on the bumper that runs from headlamp to headlamp. Two fasteners and some clips. Made the assembly come right out without any obstruction...
$85. And the shop reconditioned my lenses and it lasted 3yrs. the headlights looked like new. Very pleased and I didn't do anything but sit for 1 hour while it was done. Time to do it again but cost has increased. Need to find a shop that is reasonable as I'm in a new state.
thank you so much Trick, my old headlights where way to foggy i tried to clean them and it was no use. picked up some awesome headlights and some LED bulbs and its amazing its night and day with how much i can see at night. again thank you so much for this amazing walk through the details where amazing and very easy to go step by step with you!
In case you still want ideas about getting the headlight out - as you mention after you wrestled that guy loose, you can easily take the lower plastic bracket off with two 10mm bolts. Just remove those so it's two pieces and you'll have the flexibility to get it out without much hassle :)
Just wanted to mention that there is a hole in the fender liner that allows you to access the two screws on the ends of the bumper so you don’t have to bother peeling it back.
@@TrickShiftGarage I get it. I'm just not one of them guys to take a part off unless it is necessary. Of course that's just me. Just a heads up is all. Keep up the good work 💯
@@GStreezyaccidents can happen. You can be doing something unrelated to the batter and still get shocked or fry the electronics in the car if something happens. It's best to just disconnect when doing ANYYHING electrical
@@TrickShiftGarage Did you need all three sets of clips you linked? I bought the first set linked and different kit of 240 pieces that fits Honda as well.
Is it not possible to detach the mounting bracket off of the headlamp assembly first before trying to wiggle it out to disconnect? Seems that would be easier.
@@TrickShiftGarageno, you just mention how to take em off. Regardless, good to know. Also what I really appreciate about the video is the time that you took to explain how the electrical connectors are removed by showing the part that you have to push down. So many videos take that kind of thing for granted. The arrows you put in the freeze frame also help tremendously. Great attention to detail.
What is that plastic peace under the headlight called, and can you replace it without removing the whole headlight? I believe that is what the bumper clips into. The clips/tabs on it broke for me so i need replacement
Remove the plastic piece that sits in front of the radiator in which the front of bumper is behind it. Headlight will be much easier to take out. Hope this helps😁
Not every clip is the exact same size. Some fit perfectly in one hole but are too big in another. That's why a kit like the one I put in the description is so valuable. You can always go to your local Honda Dealer and get new clips from them, but that's going to be more expensive. It's up to you! Thanks for watching! 🤟
@@TrickShiftGarage went amazingly well props to you man I’m 16 and never worked on my vehicle myself and your tutorial taught me a lot. I got them on and working just need to run up to autozone tomorrow so I can go get some bumper pins
Alright I added the ramps to the description and will also put them below! Car Ramps - amzn.to/3PBQsdq You can also get them with wheel chocks too! Car Ramps and Wheel Chocks - amzn.to/3Q0pvS1
I love detailed videos like these. I’m gonna be replacing my halogen headlights with LED assembly. This will help me a lot.
Thanks!
Anytime, let me know how it goes!

Best video yet.
Thankyou for taking the time in making it.
Will be very helpful when I do mine hopefully in 2 days.
Awesome, let me know how it goes!
Completed both headlights on a 2012 Accord Sedan today with your video. It was extremely helpful and very accurate.
Oh that's great to hear! Glad you were able to get it done! 🤟

Good information! This should be able to help others so thanks for sharing! 🙏
Really helpful, I needed this in order to be able to replace the dipped beam bulb on the passenger side of a RHD car in the UK
I'm glad it helped! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment! 🤟
Best "how to" video ever!!!! Very detailed and precise. Thank you!!
Hey thanks man, we really appreciate the kind words! 🙏

Yea I really wish I would have done that in the video to help show everyone how easy it is.
You gave us a lot of details. I am gonna subscribe to your channel because of the same reason. Good luck
Thank you! 🙏
Just wanted to mention that there is a hole in the fender liner that allows you to access the two screws on the ends of the bumper so you don’t have to bother peeling it back.
That's very true! You can actually see my finger poking through the hole in one of the clips. Thanks for pointing that out! 👍
Good video but you don't have to disconnect the battery man.
You're right, it's not necessary. However, it only takes a minute to remove so why not? Thanks for watching!
@@TrickShiftGarage I get it.
I'm just not one of them guys to take a part off unless it is necessary.
Of course that's just me. Just a heads up is all. Keep up the good work 💯

@@swappedoutZ71 Not if you know what your doing you don't.
Been working on cars for years bro.
@@GStreezyif everyone knew what they were doing this video wouldn’t be needed so clearly, he did it as a safety precaution for the people who don’t
Great video! Did you have enough push clips to complete the job with the 6 sizes pack you've linked?
Oh yea, I had some left over too. I even used some of the clips for my truck a couple of a weeks ago. Those clip packs are very convenient.
@@TrickShiftGarage Did you need all three sets of clips you linked? I bought the first set linked and different kit of 240 pieces that fits Honda as well.
I take it there is no light adjustment needed? Great video.
Nope, thanks for watching!
Is it not possible to detach the mounting bracket off of the headlamp assembly first before trying to wiggle it out to disconnect? Seems that would be easier.
Yes for sure. I think I mentioned that in the video.

They are just headlight brackets. I think you can remove it without removing the headlights.
@@TrickShiftGarage thank you
You're welcome. Let me know how it goes!
Great video thank you

Good tip! Thanks for sharing! 🤟
Did you take steps to re-aim the headlights? If so, how?
Didn't need to. I did not replace the bulbs, nor did I mess with the housing like that.
Thank you, very details 👍
Anytime! Thanks for watching! 🤟
Great video ! Thank you 🙏🏼
Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment! 🤟
Can you pleases share a link for the exact clips? The clips in the description are all different sizes- not sure which one to get

Where i can get the headlight with bracket and front bumper?
Ebay, Amazon, junkyard or a Honda dealer.
Excellent video, thank u.

Very helpful

Video well detailed
Thanks for watching! 🤟
You are great thank you
Thanks for watching! 🤟
Will be editing my comment once my new clear headlights are in I’m starting in 20 minutes
Let me know how it goes!
@@TrickShiftGarage went amazingly well props to you man I’m 16 and never worked on my vehicle myself and your tutorial taught me a lot. I got them on and working just need to run up to autozone tomorrow so I can go get some bumper pins
Awesome dude, I'm glad you got it done. 🤟
How do I get those tire jacks ?
I have them in the description of the video!
@@TrickShiftGarage I think he's talking about the ramps. They're not in your description.
Whoops! I'll add that first thing tomorrow! Sorry for the confusion!
Alright I added the ramps to the description and will also put them below!
Car Ramps - amzn.to/3PBQsdq
You can also get them with wheel chocks too!

My DS low beam seems to be stuck in the housing. I don’t wanna replace the whole piece 😢
Some are very hard to turn. Try moving it back and forth in the housing and see if that helps loosen it up.
Werd i feel confident removing the headlights now 😂
Lol let me know how it goes!
Might wanna add that you need to re-attach your Negative cable to your battery terminal hehe, or she might not start lol :)
Lol dammit, very true! I completely forgot about that clip. Thanks for the reminder! 🤟
@@TrickShiftGarage hahaha you’re welcome!
Great video. Thank you.
