I am trying to install HIDs on a 2006 Accord.  I have installed HIDs in 3 other cars no problem but this one seems to be difficult.  I figured out how to access each bulb, but there seems to be 3 small screws holding in each bulb, what is the easiest way to remove these? It is not easy fitting a screw driver back there so does anyone have any tips?

I tried twisting at first, but I didn''t put much pressure, but it is a simple twist and turn like other cars?

assuming you have stock headlights and they are 9006 bulbs.  yes you turn the bulb counter clockwise and pull out.  if that doesnt budge, if you havent already, try disconnecting the plug from the bulb first, then twist.

I know what you are talking about .... it helps some to loosen those screws a quarter turn so that you can remove the bulb easier .... as mentioned, the bulb comes out like every other car, but those screws can make it tough.  A Z-driver can loosen them .... that''s what I used.

yes z screw drivers can get in tight places and are the most easiest tools to use
