I bought a new pair of high beam headlights, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to replace them! The passenger side is easy, and I can see the clip holding the bulb into place, but the clip doesn't want to budge! Pulled on it for a good ten minutes, and nothing! And the driver side, I can't even figure out how to take that out! The owners manual says to remove the radiator reserve tank, but I don't even see how its possible to do that! I can see the blue clip holding the headlight into place, but my hand can't fit in there, nor could I even get the bulb out or a new one in! I thought this would take like 5 minutes to do! I feel stupid! Help!
 
The blue bulb connector on both sides are basically stuck it seems like. I just spend half an hour trying to get them to come even remotely loose. They just are not budging! I did however gather up enough courage and take the radiator reserve tank out! Any advice on the blue bulb connectors? Spray a little WD40?
 
You may have to pull the battery. That's what I needed to do when changing bulbs on my Accord, and I know many other Hondas are similar.
