Thanks for posting this video. I've already changed out my foglights in my 2009 Honda Accord the wrong way and have the road rash to prove it. Before I change the headlights all to LED I'll have the clips handy. The previous owner gave up and used wire to fix the bumper back to the car already. I'll just take your advice and do it all at once and do it all right. Thanks again!

Just seen another video and was super pissed because I used this method (not because of you, because I'm a genius mechanic) there's an easier way to do this you can go through wheel wells. Remove some of the inner fender liner clips enough to where you can clearly see the headlight assembly and have easier access to the bulbs and plugs.

It's still not easy to do it blind with bulky LED bulbs to get the metal clip over. I managed one side but then the other side the clip snapped so now I only have one headlight until a replacement clip arrives from eBay. And then to top it all off the battery tiedown bolts were rusted and sheared and some idiot before me has lost the cap on one of the headlights!! Car is cursed I swear. I will have to remove the bumper and remove the lights to fix it now.

Some were stolen by removal of the headlights also engines and transmissions as well.
