Default Replacing Headlamps on a 2001 Honda Accord EX

Odd that it may seem, I'm having a hard time finding instructions on how to replace the headlight lamps on a 2001 Honda Accord EX.

I'm open to any suggestions..

Thanks

Wayne White

Wayne, do you have your owner's manual? If so, it's in there.

If not, it's easy...just a bit tight. For the driver side I can squeeze it okay, for the passenger side, pull straight up on the plastic intake pipe, it'll come right out and you'll have more room.

You'll see the three screws around the back of each plug...I always have to slightly loosen two of them, then you just twist the plug and you'll be able to pull out the plug and bulb for changing. Just be careful you don't bump the bulb pulling it out, don't touch the bulb glass, and you'll be good to go.

you should wear a latex glove when touching the bulb to make sure you don't leave any finger prints. it will shorten the bulbs life.
