HONDA 2005 Pilot - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 210)

The headlights were properly aimed
when your vehicle was new. If you
regularly carry heavy items in the
trunk, readjustment may be required.
Adjustments should be performed by
your dealer or other qualified
mechanic.
Your vehicle has halogen headlight
bulbs. Handle a bulb by its steel base,
and protect the glass from contact
with your skin or hard objects. If you
touch the glass, clean it with
denatured alcohol and a clean cloth.
Remove the electrical connector
from the bulb by pulling the
connector straight back.
Remove the rubber weather seal
by pulling on the tab.
Unclip the end of the hold-down
wire from its slot. Pivot it out of
the way, and remove the bulb.
Insert the new bulb and make sure
it is right side up. The tabs on the
base fit into the indentations in the
headlight assembly. Pivot the hold-
down wire back in place, and clip
the end into the slot.
Reinstall the rubber seal and make
sure one of its arrow is pointing up.
Push the electrical connector onto
the new bulb.
