No tools required. the headlamp is actually held in by a wire clasp with tension. Open the hood and reach behind the bulb and take off the cord that connects to the bulb. Remove the black rubber protector. It should just pull off. Next look for a wire clasp, look for the loop, just push in and and up and it should release the tension on the bulb. Remove the bulb and note how you took it out. If you look at the plug end of the light, there are 3 leads. Mine came out with the middle lead at the top. Carefully remove the new bulb from the packaging and insert into in the head light, in same way you pulled it out. Be careful not to touch the glass. The oil on your hands can decrease the lifespan of the bulb. Re-attach the wire clasp; just push it back in, you may have to wiggle it a bit to seat it. Next, re-attach the rubber protector, then plug it back in.

Will a1996 honda civic front door fit 2000 honda civic dx

The body style was the same from 1996 to 2000 for the Honda Civic. Are both of the Civics similar in body style as in they have the same number of doors? Not sure if a wagon or hatchback would interchange with a regular 2 door coupe.

96 Honda Civic. In cold weather, headlights won't come on unless high/low dimmer switch is pulled towards driver. As long as the switch is held in that position, the headlights work. After a couple of...

the "dimmer switch" is part of the combination switch. They wear down, internally - I've taken apart a used one, so I know. Also, the headlamp connectors like to corrode on that model year ( I also have 96 civic, and had to replace a headlamp connector). https://www.hondapartsnow.com/parts-list/1996-honda-civic-4dr_ex-ka-4at/combination-switch.html (parts 8 and 9)
