headlight/bulb replacement on 02 ex

Hey everyone, I got some phillips bluevision bulbs for my o2' Civic ex, and I'm trying to figure out how to put them in. I think i have to remove the entire headlight assembly. i see 2 bolts that connect the headlamp, but removing those 2 alone won't do it it seems. any ideas? also I only got 2 bulbs, the main big two, do i need any others (sidelamps, high beam etc.)? Thanks for the help

you dont have to remove the whole headlight to put bulbs in, on the back of the headlight there should be a black cover remove that and behind will be the bulb. a paperclip looking lock will be holding the bulb in place remove that and the bulb will come out

Look in your owners manual, you will see exactly how to change them.

thanks hoosier, stupid of me not to check....

the manual has instructions for the drivers side, is it any different for the passengers? it says on the drivers side u need to remove the power steering fluid, but on the other side theres no power steering fluid but rather the battery.
