Default Take off 5th Gen Front Bumper - Cleaning headlamp

Any1 got the DIY info? I was for sure that I took off all the screws and clips, but somehow it didn't come off. Any1 got a detailed step by step with pics. I Just want to make sure that I didn't miss anything before using "force"

Thanks, I did do a search, but can't find any though. Hate my old Slow azzzz 28K line.

I want to clean out My headlamp this weekend. It got a layer of dirt on the reflector, which made my new PIAA 9005 Conversion look SUX . The stock Hallogen looks okay though.

Any1 got the alternative way to it beside going all through this ? beside take off Bumper and "Oven" the Lamp?

Theres 2 clips under each headlight you probably missed. You cant get to it from the outside. Unlike civics you gotta take the bumper off by removing the bumper support. Heres how I do it..

-unplug the bumper turn signal lights
-remove screws and plugs that hold the fender well lining to the bumper
-unscrew the 1 screw in each fender well
-unclip the 2 clips underneath the car
-unscrew the 4 bolts holding the black bumper support to the car
-pull the bumper up and forward and slide out the bumper

Pretty much it, anything else I may have left out.. its been awhile since Ive taken mines off..
