    Looking for advice on replacing the drivers side running light bulb on a 2012 Pilot. Unplug, turn (which way?) remove. Tools needed if any. etc.

    Did it. Locate back of bulb socket by feel. Turn socket 1/4 turn CCW, pull bulb out. There is a bulb retaining clip in socket, use small blade screw driver to remove bulb.
    Read caution on new bulb package, do not touch new bulb glass w/o clean gloves. Insert new bulb, 1/4 turn socket CW with wire exiting the socket at 6 o'clock. You can get to the socket to change the bulb from the top. Access is limited. Have to do the job by feel, can't see down. Is fairly easy.
