Hi Jay:
Sorry about the delay in getting back to you.  My computer has been down, and I just got it fixed.  

Changing the bulbs is fairly simple.  Under the hook on the back side of the headlight chamber, you should see a socket.  I will be honest, I am not positive how the '91 works, but the "socket" should some how twist or have clips that allow you to remove the headlight.  Once you have that socket out, it's just a matter of pulling the old light out and pushing the new one in.  I am not sure where you bought the light, but if you bought it from a respectable parts dealer (Like O'Reilly Automotive or NAPA) Usually the guys there are pretty nice about showing people how to do little things like this.  As far as websites, sorry, I don't know of any.  There are books out that are called "Comptons" and they are the maps of cars.  You would just need to find a Comptons for Acura Integras.   Lastly, you could probably go to a dealership and just ask them to show you how to do it.

Hope I have helped.
Let me know if it works,
Brian
