Intake Resonator Removal - Honda Prelude Forum

Imported204 · 05-03-2003, 09:11 AM

I tried to search for this but i couldn`t find anything. I have the fender lining removed to take the resonator out and removed two bolts, the one that is pretty obvious, and the one that is right behind the turn signal, but i cant find the last one. please help me!

ok if you are looking at the side....n/m i'll go take a pic for you...

N/m on the pic...If you take the philips screw out so you can pull the side of your bumper out some you can see the last bolt...

There is a screw where I have circled in yellow. It will let you pull the bumper out a bit. Just don't go very far out so you don't crack the paint. Unlikely that it will happen but.....

I can't exactly remember where the other bolt was. I know it is in the area where I pointed. It is on the bottom side of the resonator.

Hope the picture helps

it's been a while, but it seems like i took off my corner light, and turn signal and was able to get it from one of those, it's a pita

same here.. I removed my turn signal and you cna see it alot easier than you cna get to it... Its accesible, but just barely... Its way up and back when you look through the turn signal hole... My 30 minute install took 3 hours because of this thing.. I also used a crowbar over a dremel... I just stuck the crowbar in the hole and beat the edges... Funny thing.. They folded down nicely... I dont have any rough edges, and my piping is very snug and appearance is realy good... I didnt have a dremel, but everyone who sees it asks how I did it and gets masd when I tell them crowbar... Its easy to do too!

Take the bumper off. You can remove it in less than ten minutes. It is very simple.

What is necessary to come out to take the bumper off?

I am sorry I am so stupid, I have just never done it before

.

I know the 5 plastic screw things do, but what else.

That isn't a stupid question man. We do have quite a few write ups with pics. This is the write up for JDM one piece headlight install. You have to remove the bumper and it has pic

Give it a look and let me know if you have any questions.

JDM 1 Piece Headlight installation instructions (with pics!)

As always, Andy is the man!

So how's the tranny swap doing? You already converted it?

Thanks

I've been pretty busy and haven't had the time to rip the tranny out of the car. I have to find someone around here that can rebuild it before I really get serious about it. This summer is going to see alot of change with my car

thanks a lot guy`s that helped a lot. I just installed the cold air extension on my iceman and it is a lot better than the short ram. I cant seem to get my lip back on though.
