OK this is gonna sound like a dumb question but how do you change the lightbulbs in the headlights of an 03 accord. I was trying to change them for my girlfriend but i said expletive it looked to complicated. Plus she didnt have tools. Am I suppose to take the battery out? Also how exactly do you get the bulb out? twist it and pop it out?

 

You have to go through the fenderwell.

Are those the exact terms used in the shop manual?

It's true, though. You'll have to disconnect the clip to loosen the bulb.

The owners manual gives a pretty good explanation of the procedure. It's easier than it sounds, because the fender liner is held in by clips that are easy to remove and replace.

Be careful not to break them, that's all.

On the 2006 V6 6-speed models, you even have to remove the cold air intake on the driver's side to replace one of the bulbs.
