Greetings all

Looking at the Syl;vania Silverstar bulbs. I've determined the correct
model I'd need, yet I'm seeing everywhere that people are having to remove
bumbers to install new bulbs.

On an '04 Civic Value Package trim line (the one with roll-down windows and
manually operated mirrors), how difficult is it to change the low-beam bulbs
? Any "how-to" web sites out ther ?

Then you are reading the excretions of the ignorant.
There is **NO** need to remove the front bumper.

This is Honda's own Techinfo site. click on "Owner's Manuals", then
navigate to your car.
If you have a sedan, your answer is on page 284.

See above. Or see the Owner's Manual that may or may not have come with
your car.

It didn't make much sense - removing a bumper !

The sylvania xtravision is a better bulb with more usable light.
