Change the headlight bulb on CIVIC 2001.

Hi,

I have a civic 2001, and I have just bought a new headlight. However, there are two cercle that are light in white, but my bulbe seems to be a little bit yellow. I want to change the bulb to a white one. How do I do that? Do I have to remove the whole headlight, including removing the bumper too? Or I can only do just like with the taillight, which is remove the bulb, and replace it?

I have try to access to remove the bulb, but its complicated. The access area are too close to the battery, and other things..

Please help me on how to change the bulb on Headlight Civic 2001.

Thank you!

Your question about the yellow and white makes no sense, but changing out the bulb isn't hard. you have to pull the black rubber half-sphere shaped thing off, then you push the two clips that run vertical together and pull them back, then the light just pulls out....

I know how to change the bulb, but the problem with CIVIC 01 and UP.. is that there are too much things just behind the bulb, and it's very hard to get access to the bulb. You can put your hand in, but you don't have enough space to do the move of turning the bulb out.

About the yellow, and white bulb. I was talking about a EURO WHITE..

i'm still confused by what you are trying to say. changing out a bulb is very easy, i've done that before. i've also changed my actual headlight housing, which isn't hard either. but you have to take the bumper off.

Alright. All I need to know is that. Is complicated to take the bumper off.. I don't mean it's hard, but it takes time. I thought that we can change the headlight bulb, just like the tailight bulb, which takes a minutes only.

Also, if you change the bulb on the headlight, you need to take the bumper off, but do you need to take the headlight off too? Or you can bypass by the downside?

Thanks for replying.
