On my 05 All I had to do is take one screw out and kind of slide it out. It might seem like it wont come off but it just takes some strength. If that doesnt really help out much I could prob take some pics of me removing mine.

If you have some pictures, that would be cool.
I wouldn't want to brake anything.

Alright, well ima get to it tomrow morning. But I looked in my OEM Manual that tells you "All" about the Rsx, It really isnt held down by much, just the housing that slides on and off the bumper. Plus the Lens pops right off and you could just change the bulb, which would be a regular Small Signal bulb.

ZOMG It's easy, you push the black plastic bracket towards front of the car. Remove see through plastic cover. There is the bulb.
