alright guys this morning going to work i got stopped by my local cop, he said the reason he stopped me over is because my right side headlight is not working so i said "oh ok officer" so i gave my license and insurance card yada yada gave me a warning ticket and off i go to work. so after work i stopped by my local auto zone and bought the headlight bulb, thinking to myself how hard is it to change a damn bulb i did it on my previous 92 civic and it was a piece of cake. pop the hood and i realize that the damn wiper fluid tank was in the way ok this new , so i tried taking the whole headlight off take out the nuts on the front and side and now here is were i get stuck is there bolts/nuts still holding the headlight assembly? this is getting a pain the *** just for damn bulb any advice how to replace this thing? it's getting dark so stopped for today before i get frustrated and start yanking this damn thing off . i hope i don't have to take the whole bumper just to get it out

and before anyone else say it i did search it and didn't really find anything regarding this situation unless my search skills FAILS ME

if you have an 04/05, its easier. you just have to twist off the bulb after you unplug it, no wire clip

Mr. Spade

i have a 02 ep3 i changed my bulbs so many times all you have to do is take off the wiring first then pull the rubber boot after that a piece of metal thing is holding your bulbs press it upward from there it should get off from the lock and it will come off with your bulb

Water guard? What the hell is that lol

I think the bulb you changed is the one you can actually put your whole hand in there the bulb I need to changed is the one that the wiper fluid tank is blocking it. Fyi my car is a 04 if that helps

i have an 04 as well, you're talking about the low beams.
like i mentioned before, just unplug it, and just twist off the bulb.
my hands arent the smallest but i used a flathead to help me unplug the bulb after pressing the release tab.

it is a tight squeeze but i managed to get the bulb out without too much of an effort
