Its easy...should take you 10 minutes at the most.
Hope you have small hands because it is kinda of a pain to get to them.

1) Pop the hood.
2) Look right above the headlight bulbs. You will see where the parking light wires go into the housing.
3) Twist to unlock from the housing and then just plug and play the new LED.

Hope that helps.

I recommend picking up a couple of replacement 5 amp mini fuses (I could only find these locally at the Honda dealer, $1.50/piece). There's not much that can go wrong, however one of mine had an internal polarity defect which caused it to blow a fuse.

omg...I just changed out my parking lights...my fingers HURT SO BADLY...they're screwed in there SOOO tight.

Remember that turning them to the left of the vehicle (as if you were sitting in the drivers seat left)(driver's side) unlocks them...

Alright ive been trying to do this for half hour and it still wont come out, granted I cant get a really good grip on it anyways. Is there an easier way to do this or what? Maybe some kind of tool? The lights arent budging in the least.
