Front Combination Light Removal/Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mazda 3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING:
  • Incorrect servicing of the discharge headlights could result in electrical shock. Before servicing the discharge headlights, always refer to the service warnings. (See DISCHARGE HEADLIGHT SERVICE WARNINGS .)
NOTE:
  • Fogging or condensation on the inside of the front combination lights may occur due to a natural phenomenon occurring as a result of a temperature difference between the interior and exterior of the combination lights. However, it has no effect on the light performance because the temperature inside the front combination lights rises after illuminating the headlights or a period of time has elapsed.
