    Replacing park light

    hi all, has anyone replaced the park lights on a CD5 accord before? I was having trouble getting the cover out. The manual says i need to slide the cover forward after removing the screws but the cover wouldnt even bulge. Any help would be appreciated.

    theres two screws. one on top, one on the side. very hard to access it most ppl just snap it accidently. its got more holding it in then the fkn headlight.
    so there are 2 screws and 4( i think) push in metal peices, so after removing the 2 screws, pull it forward.
    you'll prob snap something but dont worry thats prob why they have so many friggen things holding it.

    one on the top (guessing u found it).
    And im pretty sure there is another which is on the side of your car. The best way to access it, is to take out the 1 screw which holds your front bumper to your side fender, and move it off its support (peice of plastic which holds it up) and then get the screw out.

    So its rough position, is sort of on the side of ur car. (mine is broken off coz it's a bullshit thing to get to everytime u wanna take it off.

    There's only one screw on top. You then have to pop out the housing using a screwdriver. You might have to lever it out with a screwdriver so remember to put a rag against any bodywork to protect it. It should pop out after three or so swear words.
    It's not a f*cking Prelude.

    It is just one screw at the top. Remove that, put some rags in place to protect the lights and the body work, and use a big screwdriver to lever it out. I used the actual housing of the light as a levering point - don't use the flimsy little arm. It comes out - use some muscle.

    I dont have pictures, but it has to come out STRAIGHT.

    the clip things can be described as like a bolt, which is pushed into a hole (only way i can describe it). you have to pull it out straight, which may be giving you some grief. Try to lever it from the top, bottom, sides and watever else you can, but it is basically needing to come out straight.
