To remove the front headlamp on a Mazda MX-5, follow a procedure that involves removing the bumper before accessing the headlamp. Start by unscrewing the fixing screws of the bumper located underneath the vehicle and inside the wheel arches.

Next, open the bonnet and locate the upper fixing screws of the bumper, usually positioned near the top edge of the engine bay. Once all screws are removed, carefully detach the bumper from the clips holding it in place. After removing the bumper, you will have access to the front headlamp.

At this point, locate the fixing screws of the headlamp on the car's frame and unscrew them with a suitable screwdriver or spanner. Once the screws are removed, gently extract the front headlamp from its housing.

Be careful of the electrical wiring connected to the headlamp during removal, and you will have completed the disassembly.
