Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone has DIY instructions on how to change the stock HID bulbs on the 2013 tech model. I bought the 66240 CBI's and I can't wait to get them in. I read that it's best to take off the bumper and remove the headlight housing for easier access to the bulb. At this point, I don't see anyway around this. Unless anyone thinks otherwise.

Here's my understanding so far, just not sure how to execute. (i.e. all the tabs and screws to remove, tips and tricks)
1) Remove plastic covers along the sides of engine bay
2) Remove bumper
3) Remove Headlamp housing
4) Unscrew housing cap
5) Remove ignitor
6) Take bulb out
7) Put everything back together in reverse order

If anyone has any insight on how to do this with detailed instructions, please let me know. I really want to do this properly

is it possible to go in through the wheel well?

(turn wheel so you have access and then remove liner enough to get hand in there?)

All honda's are the same process! Good Luck

I installed the CBIs! Thank you so much for the videos. Removing the bumper and headlights on the RDX was definitely very similar. There were a few differences, but nothing too hard to figure out. I took photos to document, but I'm not able to post photos yet.

I find the CBIs so much brighter than the Phillips 85122 that were originally installed. The CBIs really light up the road and the beam of light is much wider. Also, I'm really happy with the colour. The box says 6000K, but it's actually a very nice white, closer to 5000K-5500K.
