Default Noob From So Cal

What's up everyone. Newbie here from Los Angeles andI have a 97 Accord EX sedan. I was wondering if someone can help me out. I want to replace the 2 front bumper lamps on my car but don't know where or how to get to the screws that hold it in-place. Do I have to remove the whole bumper? Any help will be greatly apprciated. Sorry if this information is already listed somewhere in the forum but I haven't figured out how to work the forum in its entirity.Thanks.

you can get the screws from any honda dealership.

Our 5th gen accords were kinda poorly designed when it comes to taking off the headlights.........

you see the problem is. You have to take off the bumper to take out the headlights.

but you have to take off the headlights to take off the bumper.

its really a pain in the ***.

Don't need to do anything with the headlights or buy any screws. I just want to replace the lamps on my bumper with clear ones. So I have to remove the whole bumper?

It's fairly easy and you definetly dont need to take the bumper off. You'll need a long screwdriver to get to the screw. a standard size one won't reach it. once you unscrew it you should be able to slide the lense out easily.
