Front turn signal bulb replacement - 11/30/2007 7:54:21 AM    GregRice   Posts: 3 Score: 0 Joined: 11/30/2007 Status: offline 1998 Accord LX 4D I can't seem to find this question answered so... How do you replace the front turn signal bulbs? There's an access hole near the bulb, but it's too small for my hand and the bulb is too far to exert much force with the tips of my fingers. I tried removing the whole assembly, but can't get it out. Help Please! < Message edited by GregRice -- 11/30/2007 11:52:36 AM > _____________________________ 1998 Accord 4D LX Post #: 1

But I went crazy about 2 hours ago and just started removing stuff (the bumper cover was the main thing) so that I could remove the light assembly. I finally was able to take out the assembly. I replaced the bulb and it works! I only have 3 small bolts left over. Greg _____________________________ 1998 Accord 4D LX (in reply to falkore24) Post #: 3

Maybe today, if I feel like getting aggrivated I'll take off the bumper cover and fix the issue.

But I'm still not clear after doing a search here and reading the posts. Do I need to remove the front bumper to get to the front turn signal light bulb? (in reply to GregRice) Post #: 7

Posted by DesertHonda OK,,  you can get to the bulb by partly removing the frt shield and stick your hand up there, turn the assembly to the lft, remove it from the lense and replace the bulb ,, To clarify this a bit, under the frt bumper is a sheild piece (I believe this is what he's saying) and if you loosen it you can reach your hand up in behind the bulb, turn the bulb assembly to the left (counter clockwise) and it will come out. Does that make more sense? _____________________________ 1981 Civic Station Wagon - ROhnda (Really Old Honda) 1981 Honda CB650 Motorcylce - WHEE What More can I say? 2000 Lexus RX 300 - Oooh baby my wife let me drive it once!!
