My '97 Dakota (which I thought was the same as an '02) didn't require a lamp assembly removal to change the bulbs. You had to stick your hand way in there, sure, but it was doable. Your '02 requires removal of the entire housing?
Yep. The only way to change them otherwise is to take out a bunch of stuff out of the engine compartment or to take off the bumper and crossmember.
It wasn't that bad. It was only 3 fasteners for each side, but you gotta use a really slim extension and swivel socket.
However, compared to my girlfriend's Mazda 6, it seems like a job.
I'd vote Mazda 6 for BEST headlight design.
She must have a GenII or GenIII Mazda6.
1st generation, you can access the highbeams, city lights, and foglights easily. Low Beams are buried under the fenders. You can either see it, or put your hand in there, but you can't do both.
