I have replaced low beam bulbs on my similar 2008 M5 and didnt need to remove the bumper. Way too much work here.

I am aware some years you can replace them with out that much work , however it was not possible here unless you have very small hands.unfortunately that’s not me. Thank you for the comment and I agree , way to much work for light bulbs

Looking forward to doing the camper build. That’ll be a fun project. Stay tuned should be coming soon

Super film instruktażowy.

Thank you

What year is this Mazda 5? I have a 2009 MZ5 and the low beams use H7 bulbs with a rubber boot. I have replaced them at least 3 times in about 130k miles. Now I went to install LED bubs and lost one on the 'buckles' inside the headlight housing. The only way I can get it out is to remove the headlight assembly. Removing the bumper cover in order to remove the headlight assembly is a major hassle. Replacing the bulbs on your unit looks like a big project. Way to go Mazda! Insane! I replaced the headlight assemblies in a 2004 Honda Accord and a 2003 Ford Taurus. They took about 10 minutes to remove and 10 to install. Real easy. Mazda can bite me! LOL

This is also an 09. It wasn’t as bad as you think. Pretty easy. Just time consuming, about an hour and a half

I have an '09 also; you don't have to remove the bumper but getting the clip back on when coming in from behind (low beam) is a nightmare. Probably easier to remove the bumper, especially if you want to replace both at the same time.

Can you make a video show how to remove and replace just the bumper

This video pretty much shows everything you need to know on removing the bumper. It isn’t very hard. You may want to have some replacement clips and screws on hand in case one or two get or are damaged.

Would like to know where is the adjustment of the headlights vertical and horizontal at..thanks

There’s two white plastic screws on the back of the housing . You can either use a Philips screw driver in the hole on the side of it or an 8 mm socket to turn them. I don’t have a video on it but found this one . Check it out (Keep in mind the Mazda 5 is a little different) kzread.info/dash/bejne/hJhsrtygZrmTebg.html&si=NAYVOFVp-oagYtMJ

Right now we plan on doing the camper build. Most my videos are decided by something that’s needed on the vehicles. Is there something specific you would want to see.

It is kind of a cool look

I wish you would have a more detailed video on how to remove the bumper and headlights, which screws to remove and in more detail. I also have a 2010 Mazda 5 and had to take it to a local auto shop to get 1 low beam HID bulb replaced! Yes they had to remove the bumper and headlight, final bill was $ 298.00!! Totally insane!! Thank you Mazda engineers, totally crappy design!!
