Looking for suggestions on how to best replace head lamp bulbs. Low beam bulbs are held in place with a wire retaining clip and a single screw. Space is tight and I struggled for about 30 minutes to replace one bulb (bang)? Thanks.

u dont have to take out the screw, the wire is sort of a clip and u just push down on one section and it should pop out and u can remove the bulb

thats if the 5's headlights are somewhat close to the p5's, my moms CX7 headlights are the same so i would imagine all mazda headlights are the same
 
but taking out the whole assembly would be alot easier, i did this when installing my HID's because i had to take the bumper off to hide the ballasts anyways

it will just take longer since you have to take the bumper off, but if you have the time, it will save you alot of frustration with trying to squeeze your hands in that tiny space mazda gave us
