How to obtain/buy 03 accord service manual?
The legit way would be from www.helminc.com
The links you mention seem to be British-spec manuals, based on right-hand drive & available engines.
Beginning in 1998 the UK Accord was not the same car as the USA Accord.

Yes they are. Compared to Chilton & Haynes books, they're worth it if you're gonna do serious work on your car.
If you want general knowledge so you can be reasonably intelligent talking to your mechanic, the other books are probably OK.
I've got the same car & I got the real Helm book. Having the physical book is a plus for me so I don'tget grease & dirt all over my computer.
Years ago a friend found a genuine Helm book (for his Acura Legend) at the public library. (I think he spent a fortune at the copy machine.) Worth a couplephone calls???

I think I will buy one. There are a few listed on the website. Which one should I get? What does L4 mean? Thanks!

Looks like the first one is 2003 only. Helm seems to build onto the book to add all the little differences from year-to-year. Then theykeep selling the 2003-only book until they're all gone. If there's not much price difference I'd get the one that covers the most years.
In fact that's what I did, I've got a 2003 carbut I think Igota 2003-2006manual. Just in case I bought another car someday...
L4 is the 4-cylinder engine. You V-6 owners out therehave to buy that same book PLUS the V-6 SUPPLEMENT book.
