I thought it would be easy to install my clear bumper reflectors..... yeah right!

those screws that hold the relfector on are BURIED inside there.

The left side is not too bad, but the right side has the washer fluid tank exactly in the way.

I had to drop the entire front bumper wich is easy until you have to unscrew the two screws inside by the headlights.

Finally I managed to remove the bumper.

The relfectors will be installed first thing tommorow morning.

It is nice to know that if something should ever happen to the bumper and it needed replacing, it's a job you can do yourself in about 30 minutes. Once the fasteners are removed it comes right off.

 

I was able to install the clear reflectors without removing the bumper. I had to lay on my back and go in from the front under the bumber. It was a pain in the ***, but I used a screwdriver bit and a ratcheting open end. The passenger side took a half hour and the drivers side took about 5 mins.

Where did you buy your clears and what did you pay shipped?

 

japanparts.com did an ebay auction for a set. I ended up winning the bid at $55. shipping was $12 and I got them in less than a week.

now that they're installed I really dig 'em. Big difference over those stocker ambers

 

same here.....japan parts.com. $55 bucks and around $15 for shipping to NJ. I had them for about a month before my car even came in...Graham is a lot of help there in Japan. Just email him if you have any questions.....
