Default Removing Lights on Euro Accord (TSX) Gen 7

Hi guys,

I am moving back to the UK soon and need to swap my headlights and reverse and rear fog lamps back to the UK versions. Basically the headlamps point the other way and on the back the fog and reverse light are swapped around. I have all the parts from when I bought the car new, lights, the lot. Honda UK have quoted me UKŁ194.00 (about $350)! for the job. I was a bit shocked at first and have asked them to confirm that the quote doesnt include the lights themselves, but if it's going to cost me that much money, I'd rather do the job myself.

I've a had a quick look under the hood, but I cant see how I'd get the healdight units out. Anyone ever done this or know where there's a guide or something? I saw that on the Gen6 Accord, you have to take off the whole front bumper.. is that the case for the Gen7 (TSX)?

Any help is greatly appreciated as usual!
