Removing the front bumper...first there are..I think 6 screw that need to be remove. 3 on each side...first two screw...you'll need to remove your signal light... there well be two screw under there...The other one will be near the wheel...it's a 3 philli screw. and then just do the same to the other side and you'll be finish...just in case you need help on the last step when all screw are out you'll need to pull the bumper up a little because there's this one screw (it's not screw to the bumper, so don't need to take out)that the bumper is hook to. so just lift up and pull forward.... and there you go out come that hard wanna be bumper...lol...no I mean it...when my first time doing this...It took forever for me to do it...but after that it's easier then eating candy...well anyway good luck...(it's easier then it look) anymore question just ask

Ok I looked at my 95 accord lx bumper and i saw like 2 screws i think under the headlights. You said under the signal lights there are 2 screws. u mean the bumper signal light or the other headlight part piece? I cant seem to find the screw under the wheel well either. seems so confusing and dangerous. plz help

the signal light (not headlight) you have to remove those to see the screws... the one at the wheel...okay you see how the bumper go all the way to the wheel? there look there it's a 3 headed phili screw

haha! a pain in the ass. i have some onepiece headlights in my 97 accord now. my bf and i did it but he hadn't worked on a 97 before so it took us a while. we ended up just pulling the bumper out as far as we could w/o taking it entirely off and still got the lights on. but if you are taking out the headlight and the corner ones.. just leave them together. less screws to take out :-P but i can't remember how we did it. i can tell you we took out the bumper lights first *those were replaced also* but it was a pain i think :-P good luck though

Taking the bumper off a 94-97 is easy...

1. Take out the turn signal lamps in the bumper. 2 phillips screws but you need a long #2 phillips to get them out. You can access these screws from the lower grill opening there are little rectangular cut outs in the grill opening sides. screws are mounted at about a 45 degree angle to the fromt of the car.

2. Now that the turn signals are out look into the holed where they mount and you will see where the bumper is mounted to the car...square metal tubing...on each side of this mount there are 2 bolts (each side of the car) i think they are 15mm or 17mm. Take these 4 bolts out...no need to support the bumper it is actually hung in slots so it won't fall off.

3. In the fender well there are 2 screws i think they are 8mm they are right where the bumper attaches to the fender...you may have to pull back the fender well to see them. Take these two screws out (one in each fender well)

4. Go to the front of the car and pick up the bumper...from the turn signal holes works good...it has to come up evenly on both sides then it just comes right off metal cover and all.

:Note: you may have to take the grill out to do this...if so there are just 4 screws on the upper radiator support and it comes right off.

after the bumper is off it is easy to tell how to get the headlights out.
