HID Installation (removal of bumper)
Hey I just got some 5000k HIDs for my Accord Coupe and I wanted to know if it's necessary to remove the bumper inorder to install the HIDs? Also if I have to drill holes, etc to mount the ballast? If anyone installed HIDs let kno how it went!! Thanks

No need to take out the bumper, at least not for the sedan. For the four door Accords, all you need to do is take out some of the tabs from the inner fender lining. you should be able to reach your lights that way. Make sure you have your wheel facing the other way (ie turn the steering wheel clockwise if you are installing lights on the left side headlamps). Check your manual, it should say it there as well.
