How Do I change The headlight Bulbs on a 2007 Honda Civic?

I just did this. The low beams take 9006, the high beams are 9005. On the Drivers Side -- Loosen the battery anchor bolts to move the battery an inch and pull up the coolant overflow bottle (no tools on the bottle, battery takes 10mm deep socket). Change either or both bulbs that way. Bulbs have clip connectors (squeeze to remove) and a 1/4 turn retaining ring. Lefty loosey, Righty tighty.



The passenger side is another story. You can change the high beam easily by just reaching for it from above. The anti lock brake module is in the way of reaching the low beam from above -- do not attempt to remove it(anti lock brake module). Remove the Two most forward speed clips on the plastic inner fender on the passenger side at the fender lip. Pull back and reach up to change the Low Beam Bulb. Having a person as a %26quot;spotter%26quot; from above will help immensely.



Do not touch the %26quot;glass%26quot; on the new bulb. Your skin oil will cause a hot spot and blow the new bulb.



This is hardly a beginner job (passenger side). Your dealer will probably replace the bulb for you, at no cost if you bring a new bulb to the shop. Ours where I live does this service at no charge.



EDIT: Obviously Helper has never changed a bulb on a new style Civic.

Gio -- The coolant bottle is on the Drivers side -- that is the LEFT side of the car. It used to be on the right side pre-2006How Do I change The headlight Bulbs on a 2007 Honda Civic?Get new bulb. Replace old bulb. Don't get finger oil on new bulb.

If you can't figure this much out, car repair is really NOT something for you.





Good LuckHow Do I change The headlight Bulbs on a 2007 Honda Civic?High beams/day light running lights are one set of bulbs, and the low beams are another.



Depending on how thin your arms are, the lights are accessable from underneath the hood; however, on the right side, you'll have to slide the coolent container out of the way. Otherwise, you will have to take your wheels off and access the lights through the wheel well.



Once you get access to the light area, you gotta twist on the harness, then it should pop out, then you can replace the bulbs.
