The guy at the auto parts store said they don't replace cx-5 headlights because you have to take the whole thing apart. I avoided this for weeks. This was so easy. Thanks so much. 10 minutes tops.
I know it’s been 3y, but not even a person in the auto part store could give me an answer to just replacing the bulb for the low beam…🤣 Thank you for this much needed video.
Thanks so much. The tip about the tab was really helpful. It took less than five minutes to do both sides. I'd suggest wearing latex gloves so you don't touch the glass bulb.
Thank you so much for sharing this video! I wanted to replace the low beam headlight with the LED version but I wasn't sure how to go about in doing it, but now I do after seeing your video. I really appreciate it!
Thanks mate for showing us how to get it done when like another comment, Mazda dealer said headlight had to be removed to change them and wanted to charge 1.5 hrs of labour!! I did it after watching your video in 10 minutes for both high beams. Thanks again.
This is awesome, I don't know how you did it with a camera. I had a doozy of a time getting my donkey kong hands in that really awkward low beam area and the uber short cable. Thank you so much, you saved me so much headache
The hard part of the job, on the low beam, is figuring out how to spring that little connector. It makes a little *click* sound when it’s actually ready to unplug. Other than that easy enough other than no working room to speak of and you can’t both see and touch the part 😂 typical modern car. Anyways thanks for this video, dude, I liked and subscribed out of gratitude!
The low beam connector is not easy. Mine is not the same kind of connector as the high beam. They need to show how exactly to get the low beam connector undone.
i was trying to replace mine, 2014 EU type, loogs nothing like that on the inside, was just a big metal chunk over the bilb, no connectors to take of, no lightbulb to turn and pull out. Seemes like they changed it so the whole housing has to come of
Thanks for the video. I have a 2015 CX-5 GT. While the daytime running lights are like this video, the Low Beam lights are not. The power plug goes in to some sort of housing unit behind the light instead of into the bulb. =/ Now I have no idea what to do?
On my CX-5 2014 the bulbs are not the same as in this video. I guess I have the HID lights... Don't make the same mistake I did and order without checking first XD
I watched this video at 5:25pm and was done with both headlights by 5:32pm. Thank you.

It’s actually not the same. I can’t find anything on the lowbeam i have

Thanks for this. One of the best headlight change tutorials I’ve seen. Well explained and recorded.

Thank you! This looks so much simpler than what I expected!
The video was great in showing us what to look for and the special tricks to get it in and out!

Thanks again.
Yup.. $350 they said as they also had to remove the bumper..
Thanks, dude. Just did it. Although pressing that pin can be quite hurting in this cold weather. But it worked all fine.
Hey, thanks a lot. Nice closeups and easy directions. Cheers
Thanks man…you made me look like a Master Mechanic. Keep up the videos!👍
Thank you for the video man. very helpful
Worked like a charm thanks for the help

I particularly enjoy the big sharp corner that's right there where your wrist has to go. Morons design this stuff.

Simple straight forward. Thanks

I have a 2018 cx5, is it the same way to change it?
Thank you so much!!!

Do you need to disconnect the battery first to avoid electric shock? Something I read.
Thanks fot the video!

Thank you very much I think so is saying easy is like left site yes I know???
I have a 2014 Mazda CX 5 Grand Touring how do I replace the low beam light bulbs please.
Thanks , may i know what is the bulb size ?
Superb video! Thank you so very much for your help!
Thank You bro
Hello what is the yellow light on the side called ?
how do I know which one is the high beam or low beam
I also have a cx5 2016 ,do you have to disconnect the negative battery cable before replacing the bulbs?
No, no need to do that
Thanks!

Ahhh I couldnt not unplug it for the life of me. Had to ask someone else. But I was able to get it in. Thanks
But in my Cx5 2013.. i have D4S bulb.. how to replace it with LED?
Hi Ed. Isnt low beam or hi bulb made of hid type in standard? Thanks
His version is halogen. Indonesian version is HID (mine using bi xenon HID), no separate bulb for high and low beam.
Thanks for the video. I have a 2015 CX-5 GT. While the daytime running lights are like this video, the Low Beam lights are not. The power plug goes in to some sort of housing unit behind the light instead of into the bulb. =/ Now I have no idea what to do?
They H I D bulbs. They called D4S. Be very careful when changing them. Disconnect the power from the actual light. Take to a mechanic if you not sure
You can change the HID (discharge bulb) by looking here:

@@unclebean8367 thanks for the PDF, don’t think this can apply LED low bean.
Thank ypu
This does not work if you have an AFS system where the headlights move with turning the wheel.
Completely different for my wife's 2015 CX5 Grand Touring with Hi/Lo HID lights.
Thanks
Thx
The low beam and high beam is not the same bulb?
They aren't. The low beam is an h11 and the high beam is a 9005 or 9006
This is for regular halogen bulbs, NOT xenon/HID. My 2014 CX5 grand turing has Xenon/HID and it's a very different process.
What about a 2017? 😩
Ok, that was the easy side, how about the right one?
I've got 4 new hikaris on the way
Well even though they are 9005 and h11 they don't fit the plugs lol
turns out mine are infact hid bulbs and not this 9005 or h11 bulbs
On my CX-5 2014 the bulbs are not the same as in this video. I guess I have the HID lights... Don't make the same mistake I did and order without checking first XD
Exactly the same happened to me 😂 I thought all bulbs for CX5 are the same
I got Big hands and poor vision. Mazda wants you to take it to The Dealership for a reason🤯
Cx-5 with Cx-7 floor mat? 😂
