Default Change Headlamp on 2004 Acura RSX

How do you get to and change headlamp(lowbeam) on Acura RSX. Looks like battery in way if bulb comes out the back of cavity, or does lenscover come off someway. Thanks

I just take the battery out on the driver side... makes life easier.. I know because I seem to have to replace it every 3-4 months... That's the question I have... are there better bulbs out there?

Here is the link for a 2006 RSX-S (should be same/similar procedure for 2004):

[FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=verdana, geneva, lucida, 'lucida grande', arial, helvetica, sans-serif]Headlight[/FONT][/FONT] procedure starts on page 184 of the manual.

As for better bulbs, I highly recommend Sylvania Silver-Stars (keeping a stock-like bulb). HID's are way better, but also quite costly...

you gotta take out the battery on the left side and you could take out the steering fluid on the right side for more room....and no the lense dont come off...the only way you get the lense off is taking out the whole headlight housing and heating it up in the oven...and you would only do that if you were gonna paint the headlight black JDM...
