You need to remove the front bumper not as hard as it sounds. First remove the grill. Five screws and it pops out. If you're doing both sides, remove the battery and windshield washer tank. Remove the side marker lamps by unscrewing one screw for each lamp. Remove the turn directional lamps on the bottom of the bumper. Behind each lamp opening you will see two bolts that need to be removed. Directly above the directionals inside the engine compartment there is a threaded stud with a nut on each side, remove both nuts. After removing the four bolts and two nuts the bumper pull right off. Each headlight assembly has five screws holding it in, remove those and pull out the headlights. To install just reverse the process.
Remove the wiring harness from the back of the headlight. Remove the headlight assembly bolts. The headlight assembly will come out.
The headlight is an assembly. To replace the headlight, you remove the bulb from the back side. It is a halogen bulb, so do not touch with bare hards before installing.

call macgyver
take a baseball bat and smash the light with it.
You have to replace the entire headlight assembly not just the cover.
Front of the car, built into the headlight assembly. It is the orange light nearest the tire.
This just isn't something that you want to do. Remove engine shroud, grill, bumper on the side that you're working on, inner fender fasteners - then you can get to the 4 bolts that hold the headlight assembly in. Did it yesterday - won't do it again. 5 hours :-(
no because an accord headlight is much more longer than a civic headlight
The headlight deflectors are located in the headlight assembly. They can be difficult to remove and replace, because you have to feel your way around in the beginning.
The 2002 Honda accord headlight changing diagram can be obtained from most Honda dealerships. The diagram can also be obtained from the auto-parts store where you bought the new headlight.
