I did a search and found nothing but threads about headlight replacements (the whole unit) and JDM headlight replacements. I have a 2000 Honda Prelude and recently one of my headlight bulbs died. I went to an auto parts store and the idiots there were no help whatsoever.

Where can I get these bulbs (I figure I might as well replace the other one while I'm at it)? How easy are they to install and what tools will this require? Finally, is there anything I should be on the lookout for so I don't screw something up?

Thanks.

 

You need H1 bulbs. They are usually sold in pairs. You can get some at Autozone or other parts stores, they have lots of kinds. You can also get some on eBay or other online stores. There are only about 1000 brands of lights, with about 10 color choices. To replace the bulbs, unplug the power to the light, pull the rubber boot off, remove the clip, remove the bulb, and then repeat in reverse order. The whole process takes maybe 5 minutes. No tools are required. Although, I do recommend a clean shop rag or paper towel, because the only thing you want to avoid is touching the bulb with your bare hands.
