Get yourself a clip tool. Much lower chance of breaking clips.

Removing the bumper is cake, I can honestly have mine off in less than 5 mins. I've had my bumper off at least 8 times already and haven't broken a single clip.

I've moved on to zip ties.

Hey guys would there be any problem if I were to follow this guide line on my car? I feel I would be able to do this. All I would have to buy is the HID kit for my low beams and fogs.

Also this wouldn't change anything in terms of having automatic headlight control? My car turns on the headlight automatic sly when I gets dark. I'm asking because a suburu driving I stalled HID's on his car and said he had to manually turn on his headlights. Then again his DRL are his headlights where as mine it's separate from low beam.

Won't be any problem although I feel like removing the entire head light is unnecessary.

It does seem like extra work but I feel it's better placement of the ballas. IMO. I think I will do this. Just gotta do research on a good set and I'm good!

I've Google search images of HID kits on civic's but most show from headlight view or projectors. I wanted to see more output view on non projectors

Nah where they sat the ballasts u can already see that area without removing headlights. But good luck to u, I'm sure the install will go smooth
