Fit for 2009 Mazda 6 Low Beam Bulb

Perfect fit for my 2009 Mazda 6 2.5L. OEM bulbs are around $150, so that's a fraction of the cost. It's worth it. To be honest, changing the low beam bulbs on a Mazda is a bit of a hassle. You will need to remove the plastic body paneling on the inside of the wheel well. Don't remove it completely, but remove enough of the plastic clips to allow you to lift the panel and access the lightbulb. A few tips: Remove the 4 screws under the front bumper holding the plastic wheel arch liner in place. I've watched a few YouTube videos where we're having trouble accessing the bulb, but removing those 4 screws makes it a lot easier. Plus, using a jack to raise the front gives you a few more inches of much-needed clearance. Remove the round gray waterproof plastic cover. You just have to twist it a few degrees to unlock it. You then remove the electrical housing by twisting it. There is an arrow on the boot itself that shows which direction to turn. After removing the case, there is a metal clip that holds the bulb itself in place. You just have to push the clip towards the front of the vehicle and then towards the center of the bulb to release it (you have to release the clip on both the right and left side of the bulb). Then you can simply let the clip fold down like opening a mailbox. Allowing the metal clip to go all the way down gives you the clearance you need to easily slide the lamp in and out. These replacement bulbs come with white gloves so you don't run the risk of dirtying and burning out your bulbs. There are some videos on YouTube showing how to change a lightbulb, but they work in such a small space that I couldn't find any videos with good camera angles. I'm sure my steps may seem confusing, but combined with the YouTube video, they might help someone.
