    • Pull on the hood release lever just inside the passenger door to pop the hood.

    • Locate the hood release latch under the hood. Use one hand to press up on the latch while you lift the hood.

    • Insert the hood prop rod into the hole in the hood marked with an arrow.

    • Locate the head light bulbs and connectors directly behind the headlights and on either side of the engine bay.

    • Detach the head light connectors by pushing on the lever on the top of the connector and pulling it straight down.

    • If needed, you can disconnect the air intake (next to the battery) to get some extra wiggle room in order to detach the head light connector on the passenger side. If you remove the air intake, be sure to plug both sides with a clean, lint-free cloth so that nothing gets inside while you work.

    Sometimes the connector can be very tight and cannot be pulled off by hand, especially in such tight spot. One could push on alternate sides with a flat blade screwdriver gently to ease it off.

    The passenger side low beam bulb was extremely difficult to remove, owing to very little space to work in. Then I realized that the air intake could be rotated and pulled out. It was easier than removing the battery. After that it was very simple. I found it easier to first unscrew the bulb assembly, and then detach the connectors.

    Thanks!

    never seen or found a lever to push on top of connector, tho I do see it but it won’t pull of easy….a better picture or a close up and different description may help, I know to twist the back part of the bulb, I’ve done it before, but is giving me difficulty now, bulb won’t come out and harness won’t come off bulb either….very frustrating. 2002 accord
