Headlight Bulb Removal/Installation: High-beam

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mazda RX-8. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Disconnect the negative battery cable.
Remove the fasteners, then slightly bend back the mudguard.
Disconnect the connector.
CAUTION:
- A halogen bulb generates extremely high heat when it is illuminated. If the surface of the bulb is soiled, excessive heat will build up and the life of the bulb will be shortened. When replacing the bulb, hold the metal flange, not the glass.
Remove the socket, then remove the headlight bulb.
