years experience restoring and repairing
cars and trucks like this to show you
the correct way to install parts from 1a
auto calm the right parts installed
correctly that's going to save you time
and money thank you and enjoy the video
in this video we're going to show you
how to replace the headlights on this o
5 Honda Accord same as any oh 3 207 and
if you're just looking to replace
headlight bulbs you can do that without
removing the headlights passenger side
you can reach an easy enough driver side
I think you do have to remove the
battery so tools you'll need flat blade
screwdriver a Phillips screwdriver and a
10 millimeter wrench or socket and
ratchet and perform this repair you do
have to remove the front bumper cover
but don't let that scare you it's only
installed by some fasteners and a couple
bolts and screws okay change a headlight
assembly you'll see we've got it up here
on a lift you don't have to put on a
lift we're just we have it raised up to
make it easier to show you but first
you're going to start by removing a
number of clips okay here's one two
three four five on the top okay and then
down around the bottom there right
across the bottom here okay here right
here and then right across the bottom
okay and then there's a clip there okay
which is in front of the wheel and there
should be one there in front wheel but
it is missing one
okay these are easy to remove you just
use a screwdriver you can see there's
actually a little slot press the
screwdriver in there pry up and the clip
comes out so I'll remove all those okay
also need to remove three of those clips
on top and then 2 Phillips screwdriver
style clips usual Phillips screwdriver
to unscrew out of the
and and then the clip comes up out okay
here we're going to fast forward a
little bit because you don't need to see
me pull out each individual one and we
use fast-forward a little bit throughout
the video when I'm just doing repetitive
things like taking out fasteners or
whatever
okay next there's two Phillips screws
okay and this one right up in there
right up in the wheel well and then one
on the other side I'll remove those
okay now there's four 10 millimeter
bolts okay here here and then the same
thing on the other side there and there
our move bills
there are clips and you just want to
kind of pull up lightly to release these
clips and pull this part of the cover
out
okay so once you have all those
passengers done and you know about those
clips
okay pull the sides out from the cups
the other side clips now the clips run
backwards that are holding the grill on
that's interesting so that's why that
pulled off and fix that easily up and in
here upper cover comes off okay to
remove your headlight now there's five
ten millimeter bolts one okay you're
going to take these two off here two and
three this one here for and then this
one up here five and all the mughals
okay once you've undone all those bolts
headlight out and then you can unplug
all your lights or remove them if you're
just looking to replace the headlights
on this side I believe take the battery
out you can access the headlights well
enough on the other side I believe you
can access the headlights enough to
change them with a unplug kinda okay and
the headlights twist to remove okay and
then also if you're replacing your
headlight this wiring harnesses pinned
on here right here and or a screwdriver
to release the clip so the longer one is
the original here's the replacement from
1a auto even on 2005 Watts up in your
car you can see how much clearer and
crisper the new headlight is but ours
has all the same clips and everything
it's going to bolt on and mount the
exact same way will just be a nicer
brighter light reinstalling the lights
going to go the same way
turn signal okay
okay kind of stick that one underneath
there get the light in the fender then
there are little tabs here and here they
go into holes in the fender so you want
to make sure you get those into the
right spot okay once they're going in
I'll lift up the light put it in and
then start your bolt so I'll put the
bolts back in
you
okay so I've got all the bolts in and
preliminary in and just here I'm using
the air ratchet like a regular wrench
and just tightening up you want to
tighten them snug you know five or ten
foot pounds maybe but not too tight
because you okay now here we're going to
go in to reinstall on the bumper cover
because of the u-tube ten minutes we do
speed this up if you want to see this in
real time you can check out our other
videos it's on there in regular speed
but probably if you took the bumper
cover off you can figure out well enough
how to get it back on but I hope this
helps you out and thank you very much

needs
you
and lastly your two Phillips screws
