Sorry Thooks...but that manual is the worst thing u can read to get help to change the bulbs...its says u gotta take the bumper crap out from inside the wheels....bs...just pop the hood...u got plenty of space on the right side...and for the left..jsut get the air duct out...should be good...i changed mine to 9006ST...very reasonable...and much whiter and brighter than the stock ones...

you can use any type of bulb just so long its those 9005 for highbeam and 9006 for low beam....you can go to autozone or advanceautoparts to get sylvania, piaa, etc etc..just remember the part numbers...

You do go in from the wheel well for the signal bulbs, but not the headlights.

take your battary out. it should do the trick. unplug the harness before you take the bulb out. and put the replacement in and then plug.

just to be safe and not have the bulb touch anything before it gets into it's home.

I'm not home right now but i know... I'm gonna be home in couple hrs... I'll take some photos and update you. you have to take some parts out...

[[EDIT]]

ok I'm home now.. sorry if I'm late.
you're prabably done by now but just incase you didn't...
Do you have V6? I just realized yours is coupe. Mine's Sedan.. so I dont know if this would help... but here's example ...very simple

That's what you need to remove.





You can just pull it out.. sometimes it wont come out easy.. You gotta pull it hard enough.











here you go... that's sedan.. hope yours is similar... people said to take battery out, but I have no problem sticking my hand in there. Good luck!!
