Replacing marker light...

[Jonathan]

Perhaps marker light isn't the right term, but effectively these are the two white lights below the headlights.

I have one burned out, and no manual handy, what bulb do I need and how do I get to it without pulling the nose apart?

I am taking the car into the shop at the end of the month, but somehow with it burned out I feel cheap driving around at night with 3 out of 4 lights working

There is a little hole right beneath the "marker light" (located closest to the acura symbol). Use a long phillips head screw driver to loosen the screw, but this screw doesn't come out-- it just tightens and loosens! Once the screw/fastener is loose, you can pry the lens out from the bumper. Mine was kind of sealed in there due to wax buildup, etc... but it comes out in swinging motion from hood center to outerfender.

I hope this helps... also the bulb is #194.

Hi Johnathan
see here -
http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/Reference/1991_svcman/1991servman.pdf

Page 23-191 or Page 1178 of 1379 to save you hunting around - has a diagram that shows it graphically.

Also, these lights are called the "front turn signal/front position lights" or "front combination lights" in the parts identifier- the markers are the auxiliary ones on the fenders.

Heh, dammit, I did search, but I wasn't searching for the right thing

Also, the service manual link at the DIY page is broken

Thanks Ken, et al, for your help, I will take a crack at it ASAP -

You are correct - the link from the DIY page is incorrect. You can access correct link to the the manual from the reference section.
It is working fine Johnathan - I actually found the correct page number by looking it up before I posted; I saw your other post in Prime forum, questioning broken link - think you may have found a broken link from where you normally find it.
if you click on the link in my post above, it will take you straight there

FYI to others on Manual reference: I think it is extremely helpful to post the page number in the manual rather than just a link to the whole manual - after you launch then you can drag the cursor down the scroll side-bar until the exact page is reached. Makes it much easier to go to exact source of the data.
