ums... i think you can just unclip and pull back the gaurd liner and go from there.
easier than taking out a battery.

what do you mean on the far side?
light towards the outside of the car right?
as far as i can remeber when i was doing it, i just jacked it up, un did the gaurdliner via the clips, pulled it back, and changed the bulb.

Did you read the Integra manual? It has diagrams to help.

On the right hand side you take off the power steering fluid to access the lightbulbs.

On the left hand side, you unscrew the windscreen washer bottle, shift it out of the way then access your lights.

I've done it several times, both a Dc5 and a DC5r. This method always works for me.

yeah it's not that hard to change bulbs if you have small enough hands...

are you going to make an intake hole to suit your current intake settup in that pic? please do tell how you plan on doing it.

coz once i make a whole like that, ill get a rub and point it directly to the cai as well

but the cai is drawing air already from the front left brake duct opening of the bumper.

not at all...
there's really no point, because you're trying to direct air from above to where the filter will be...what is the benifit of that?
