Do I need to buy a headlight bulb separately?

Yes — bulb is not included with this assembly. Purchase the correct bulb type for your CR-V generation separately and install it into the housing before mounting.

Will this bolt directly into the original mounting points?

Yes, this assembly uses the factory mounting holes — no drilling or bracket fabrication needed. Standard hand tools and basic fasteners are all you need to secure it.

Can I use this as a left or right headlight?

This is a left-side-only unit — it will not fit the right side without custom modification. If you need both sides replaced, order one left and one right assembly.
