It there's no screw, you probably just have to pop it out

Here some pics

DRL LED with 20000k

Low Beam and Fog lights and both are 10000k

Here some pics when I turn on High beam and as you can see, if you want to put the LED for DRL you will have to sacrifice the brightness of your high beam.

Once you remove the assembly there should be screws on the back side
I was hoping there was an easy way to take them off without taking the bumper off......... Thinking about paintng covers.......... But it's not that important.......

If someone happens to know where to pop from would be nice.......

I wouldn't do LEDs as your headlight low beam if that's what your talking about. You won't be able to see a thing.

does this help you any? I've not seen the coupe, but it looks like it has 9 retaining tabs and then has 3 screws as well.

yeah, most of the installation pdf's are good. If they don't have it listed on their site, I have a lot of them posted in the accessory area or here:
http://9thcivic.com/forum/pages/2012-Civic-2-door-moonroof-visor/

click a topic on the left, and it'll load on the right hand window. It'll allow you to zoom in on the right hand pane after things load etc.

I was trying to get you to that earlier

Yea .... I saw yours 1st and went to look for it but couldn't find it, then when webby showed that graphic. I realized it could be found on a mod' with in the site. And now I know there is a whole bunch of them listed at the bottom of our forum page. Very helpful for taking plastics apart, I say that because plastics are the worst if we don't know "how" to separate them. Looks like the fog cover will pop out like the bumper comes off after undoing a few screws, but I wouldn't have pulled on either one not knowing if it can be done.
