Replacing the Rear Brake Light Bulb

Model: Mazda Cx 7 MK 1 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Tail light bulb

To replace the brake bulb in the rear light, you do not need to remove the light unit as you can access the back of the light by opening the boot. Remove the side plastic cover, which is clipped in place, located just behind the light housing. Once the rear cover is opened and the plastic cover is removed, access the back of the light and detach the bulb holder by turning it anti-clockwise. At this point, you can extract the old bulb and insert the new one, then reverse the steps to reassemble everything.
