dmx, have you had HID for your civic? I'm thinking of doing it myself without removing the front bumper.. I've been searching the forum for DIY guide for this, but I couldn't find one.. Do anyone know how?

You dont need to remove the front bumper at all.
you remove the screws from the splash gaurd where the wheels are and pull it back.
then you look up and you will be able to see the lights and you twist them and pull it out then place the hid bulb in there while some one helps you pull the cord for the ballast threw from the top of the engine bay.
fog lights are easy just pull hard on the black cover next to it. then unscrew the light and replace the bulb.
if you wanna know a bit more in detail just pm me.
correct bulb sizes are
Low beam - HB4
High beam - HB3
Parkers - W5
Fog Lights - H11

mine, i did remove the bumper to mount the balllast. but my fren, he just put around the radiator area (there is metal bar that u can use), and the cables close enough to reach the headlight. u can try this.
