Status: offline 		I purchased some Xenon bulbs to replace my stock ones in the 92 Accord. I was unaware that it was so difficult to replace them. Apparently the battery has to come out among other parts. The bulbs I got were 9005 and 9006. I believe the 9006 are the low beam and 9005 are the high - please correct me if I'm wrong.

Would anyone have any visual instructions are to what to remove and how to remove it to access what I need to access? Any sage advice?

Thanks!

03AccordEX's photo gallery 		As far as I know (and lightshow or the other guys will correct me if Im wrong, its been awhile since I've had my 91), All you have to do is move the plastic/rubberish fenderlining on each side to get to the bulbs, no need to take the battery out at all.

Status: offline 		here's a removal diagram for a 91... Also, keep in mind DO NOT TOUCH the bulb itself on halogen bulbs... The oils on your hands will kill the bulbs/shorten their lifespan signifigantly... or so I've always been told... Anyway, here's the pics. If you're still having issues post some pictures of what you're looking at...
