Replacing the Front Headlight Bulb

Model: Mazda Cx7 MK 1 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Headlight bulb

To replace the front headlight bulb, it is not necessary to remove the headlight or other elements in the engine compartment, as there is enough space to work behind the headlight. Open the front bonnet and locate the bulb holder behind the headlight (the bulb comes complete with holder and connector), rotate it approximately ninety degrees anti-clockwise to release it and disconnect the corresponding connector. Then connect the new bulb (HB4 fitting) to the connector and attach it to the headlight by rotating it clockwise until you hear a click.
