Yep, awesome simple, disconnecting wiring harness before removing bulb is clutch, difficult to twist bulb out when still connected to plug. Also great tip on getting replacement connectors from HW store. This video shows some of the important details that are difficult to see in others. Also,there is a difference between passenger and driver side replacement. Thanks

Holy what!? $385 is robbery! Definitely shop prices or do yourself. You can find the most expensive light bulbs for under $50 and do yourself. Geesh! Dealers are sometimes crazy…

On my Civic EX in cold weather the plastic in the wheel well was really stiff and had to bend it hard. For me it was easier to disconnect plug from old bulb by removing the bulb while still plugged in, reaching in from on top via the hood with my left hand (push the plug end up towards where the left hand can barely reach) and holding the bulb in my right hand from the wheel well. For plugging in the new bulb I did as in the video, screw in then plug in all from wheel well. Thanks for the video!

I got 210k km, which is 130 000 miles on my 2008 civic. It still goes easily trough yearly inspection with no problems, literally without any engine problems, just changing the 0-30W oil yearly. It probably runs 300 000 miles without worries at least. 84 000 miles is nothing, that car would sell for 5000$ in my country still.

Im going to try this with my 2009 civic. Its left turn signal is blinking fast and i think the bulb is burnt out because the horn went out. Wish me luck. If theres any tips , id really appreciate them. Do i need to disconnect the negative terminal on the battery?

@FastFixYouTube

Hello. If you have a fast blinking turn bulb, the relay is going bad. If the bulb is lit, it’s not burnt out or going to burn out. I would search “Honda civic blinker relay” and see what comes up. No need to disconnect the negative battery in either case. Best of luck!
