Removing Bulbs on JDM Headlight - Honda Prelude Forum

Jape · 02-16-2002, 01:01 AM

Ok Guys I can't figure it out, I dont want to break it but I dont see a simple way to remove the bulbs from this thing, before I install my JDM Headlights, I would like to know how to remove the bulbs for future reference....

If anyone can give me a step by step on how to take the bulb out, mad pr0ps will be given...

I'm interested in this, too, since I'll have to replace my burnt out bulb soon ... w/ some shiny new Showoff Krypton/Xenon bulbs.

my JDMs came with the black little wiring harnesses but when I unplug those, it really looks to me like the bulb is not replaceable, and permanently in there .. which I know is obviously not the case... The sidemarker is really easy to remove, the other two, well thats another story, someone help!!

It's been a while since I even looked at the backs of my headlights ... just had them wired up, and went from there ... until my bulb burned out.

Hey I just checked mine out, they are right beside my desk.

1. Pull the black harness clip off the back of the light.
2. Pull the black gasket off the housing [it has a little tab 2 pull it]
3. There is a little metal bracket that holds the bulb in place, Once you see it, you will notice how to push the wire frame in and out pops the bulb.
