Replacing stock headlights with new stock pair
I got some new stock headlights for my 94 integra and want to take the old ones out and put these in. Now im not a car pro that knows how to do lots of stuff but i think i can do this myself. I looked under the hood and it seems like a bunch of stuff is in the way... including my cold air intake pipe... Can i get some help on how to do this replacement and like an estimate on the tools and how much time it'll take(i dont wanna start and not finish the same day cus i need car to drive to class) If you have pics that would be awesome but i bet u dont. anyways any help is awesome. thnx.

You have to pull the bumper off. A set of hand tools is required and it shouldn't take more than 2 hours if you haven't done it before.
Why do you want/need new headlights? Are your old ones cracked or broken?

It is actually the bumper cover, do a search on it, I am certain this has been described in detail here before. A bunch of 10mm bolts, have a friend to help you so you don't scratch the cover.
