Well the pin should be attached to the actual headlight housing itself, not the bulb.. Btw I may be wrong but I am fairly sure 2011 honda accords don't use H1 sized bulbs, at least not the stock housing.. I could be wrong though..

I installed a set of 9006(HB4) HID kit on my '09 Honda Accord Sedan. It was pretty easy. Just took off the front wheels and went thru the wheel arch. The metal clip is attached to the headlight housing and is pretty simple to release. H1 bulbs wont fit. Hope this helps a bit
