hey man, you have to take the bumper off to get to the 3 bolts that hold the headlight on. once you get the bumper off, its pretty self explanatory. theres a bumper bracket right in front of each headlight that needs to be removed too. i dont have pictures or instructions of how to remove the bumper but found this for you: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/show...mper-Removal&p=4237575&viewfull=1#post4237575
here are pics of my car with the front bumper off. this may or may not apply to you but there's a piece on the outer part of the OEM headlight where i had to swap over to the new headlight. if i remember correctly, it was for a bracket to hold the front bumper to hook/mount onto. gluck!

Thanks 323 I think that will actually help. I haven't been 100% sure if I needed to take the whole bumper off but the pics definitely help. I love this site haha. After 11 years my headlights finally need replacing. I'll post some pics
konig countersteer 17x7 +40. dont think they make them anymore so you'll be looking at the rota grids 17x7.5 +45 and they cost a little more
