    • Locate the head light bulbs and connectors directly behind the headlights and on either side of the engine bay.

    • Detach the head light connectors by pushing on the lever on the top of the connector and pulling it straight down.

    • If needed, you can disconnect the air intake (next to the battery) to get some extra wiggle room in order to detach the head light connector on the passenger side. If you remove the air intake, be sure to plug both sides with a clean, lint-free cloth so that nothing gets inside while you work.

Nobody can replace the headlight for my 1999 Honda Accord (low beam). Everyone says the 9006 is supposed to fit the socket. The socket is fine; the connector for the new bulb is covered by a plastic sheath, which the old bulb doesn't have. Should I go to a dealer for this part?
