Until a better answer comes along, here's one to explore. Many cars are designed with headlamps that are replaced from the back. Unfortunately, they are not always easy to get to. But if you try to do it from the top or front by loosening bolts or screws, you run the risk of altering the direction of the headlights.

Again, generally speaking, if you can get your hand behind the headlamp, you wll find an electric plug that goes into the rear of the lamp. Pull out the plug. Then there may be a plastic ring that locks the headlamp bulb in place. Loosen that counterclockwise and pull out the bulb. Yu should be able to buy a replacement bulb at any auto parts store. Compare the used bulb and the new one to be sure they match up.

Finally, you can get a used Haynes manual for your particular model Honda at Barnes and NOble (www.bn.com)or Amazon.com for as little as $6.95 plus $3.50 postage. That's good enough for DIY backyard mechanics. The "official" repair manual published by the automobile companies cost roughly $50. It's worth the price but you will probably never need it.
