Its pretty simple,
Stick your hand down and twist the light cover anti clockwise...
Then there will be a clip holding the bulb in, just flick it off and ur bulb will fall out...

If u cant do that just undo the bracket holding your battery in place and shift ur battery out of the way giving you more space...

Also that link is for the 5 door civic...

The left side is the passengers side... thats where the secondary air duct & battery is... so the advise is correct.

You may have been mistaken.

correct but if you stand outside looking at the car and change the light, the left side is the driverside. I had the same problem, passenger side I just have to remove the backup coolant. Driverside, no way. And he said there as no space.

Hahaha well mechanic charge 20 or so man. But I got mine done free cos I knew the guy
