Exactly. Once you take off the rubber grommets, there's a skinny metal fixture you'll feel. It's hooked on one side and you gotta push around and unhook it. Swing it open like a door and the bulb will be loose.

its pretty much like the 96 and up civics. you gotta remove the grommet and if you have small hands you can push out the pin and get the bulb. just make sure you be very careful and do not touch the bulb!
