Nice. One note. There is a "down" side to the bulb so it seats correctly. It's easy to see if you look at the three prongs. There are two opposite each other (the sides) and the third one in between (the down side). Thanks a lot!

Agreed, figuring out how to seat the bulb so the bracket goes back on was a pain until I looked at the receiver plug orientation, that helped me get the new bulb in there in the correct position and then the bracket slipped right on very nicely.

For my 2014 CR-V the middle prong orientation is up and not down. So safe practice is to look at what direction the middle prong is oriented in the old bulb when you remove it.

2013: The middle prong is on top. There are three tabs on the 9003 bulb and there are 3 indentations where they fit. Next time, I’ll wear medical gloves; those gaskets are filthy.

Important: don't touch the bulb. The grease from your hand will seriously hurt it's lifespan. I learned this the hard way after the fact from the auto mechanic that fix it after me. Now I'll never pay to have someone do it again! (Thanks so much for making this video!) ☺

Thanks! I noticed my light was out the other day, so since it was raining I pulled in to the local Pep Boys to see if they could do it for me. They said I had to go to a dealer because the whole bumper needed to come off!?!? Thankfully I watched this video and was able to do it myself instead of spending WAY too much time and money going to a dealership. Great little tutorial. Much appreciated.

I have a 2011 CRV and one person has told me bumper has to come off. Another has told me it doesn't. I've looked at several vids now and none have removed a bumper. Looks almost like I could do this myself, but think I'll just have my regular mechanic go ahead and replace both bulbs while in there due to age of them.

And when putting the rubber back on it is easy to cover one of the 3 plugs. I of course did not have good light and had a hard time figuring out why it would not connect. But very easy in the end!

Great video. It should be known however that changing the same bulb on the passenger side is significantly more difficult because the fuse box is in the way and there is absolutely no room to work. The hardest part is getting the clip locked in once the bulb is replaced. It can be exasperating to say the least. Ultimately, I was able to get it done using a pair of needle nose pliers (instead of my fingers) to hold the clip and push in and then down to lock it in.

I went through this last night. Unclip and move the circuit box (which only moves about 2" because of the cables) still not enough room to maneuver so I removed the bracket that held the circuit box, got the bracket off and the lightbulb out, put in the new bulb and then took 20 minutes to get the bracket back in place. Then put the bracket back and the circuit box. Geez what a pain for folks with big hands.

Off to the side by about an inch and a half. Still can't see what you're doing or have any idea how what's in there relates to what's shown in this video. But it's all secondary to the fact that I can't get the rubber seal off anyway. It is firmly attached to whatever is in the center.

My 2013 CRV EXL has the "down" prong on the light on the top...the prongs make a 3-sided box with the open side to the bottom. You can look at the little metal tabs sticking out to the sides (3 of them) and make sure they are seated in the slots so the light is in the correct position to be able to fasten the clip. A personal note: I drive 5- 6 hours each night delivering newspapers. The top-dollar, ultra bright headlights are nice, but they burn out FAST if you are using them for hours at a time, regardless of brand. I go for the mid-range ones...more durable and less expensive, but still fairly bright for night driving, especially on country roads. Note for newbies: NEVER touch the bulb itself; always handle the metal back to insert. Keep a clean cloth or paper towel handy to wrap around the bulb in case you need to grab it to stabilize while you're trying to position it.

Oh my goodness! Best video ever! I have a 2013 and I was able to surprise my husband and do it myself. I had a little trouble with the hook, but I played with it like you said, and I have no idea how it went back inside. Lol then it would not turn on so I had to disassemble again and tested without the rubber to make sure I was placing it correctly. I loved having accomplished this, and I would not have done it without your video. When I opened the hood and saw it, I was in a maze, and after your video, I understood every single piece of it.

The thing it didn't mention is that to change the driver's side you need a very small hand. The fuse box is right behind the bulb. I unlocked it (the fuses box) from the three tabs that hold it and lift it up a little to make a little bit more room. It won't come out because it is connected to several cables, but moving it just a bit helped. Good luck!

Thanks; still useful. I covered that rubber boot in vaseline when I put it back together; don't worry it's not conductive in case you get some on the bulb contacts. Honda dealership before me dielectric greased the pins also. Tight in the driver side but I used a screwdriver to gently pry the boot off the bulb (heat from bulbs you can't turn off (F U DRL!!) causes it to stick) and it came out easily.
