no it is like a dome light style bulb (I can't think of a better way to put it). Take it out and go to your local parts store, there are everywhere. The 97+ have H1 low, H1 high and a dome light bulb style bulb.

Sorry to hi-jack your thread but has anyone had problems with the H1 bulbs blowing like crazy. I have the Catz Zeta kit for my Prelude and the Catz bulbs lasted... well damn 2.5 years. And since then I have seen blowing bulbs left and right. Its gets ungodly expensive to replace $40 in bulbs every month. So I unhooked the Zeta system thinking maybe it was that and it still does it. Any help would be great. And no I do NOT touch the bulb

those are the "city lights" they are like 0.89 at your local honda dealer, and every dealer should have them in stock. go up to the parts counter and ask y0.

speaking of the front side bumper lights...for everyones FYI, they are the read clear bumper lights for a honda accord. forget what year, but the clear ones look a lot better, and are like 5 bucks...if anyone was wondering.

and the drive lights bulb are just generic bulbs, you can get them at honda dealerships or just places like autozone. I just disconnected mine...looks cleaner.

the clear ones SUX *** IMO, the amber look much cleaner, but that is IMO. I have had the clear ones for years and have nothing but trouble with them leaking. if you put the clear ones in get led bulbs so they will not discolor from the water leaking in.
