This isn't a full guide, as I can not recommend doing it this way. #klavs #mazda #mazda6

Thank you very much for your video. This was very helpful.
You are welcome. Glad this cloud help 👍
Thank you from Virginia USA
👋 You are welcome.
Same here. Also from Virginia. The video is a big help
@@garyhunter667 Glad it could help
Thank you for this. It helped a lot.
Glad it did 👍 You are welcome
Hi Klavs
I think I’m suffering with parasitic draw as battery not good at holding cranking amps.
Can you tell me if the voltage regulator is within the alternator or separate somewhere else?
Mazda 6 ts2 2011 2.2 diesel
Thanks
.
Hi Barry.
Voltage regulator is on the alternator / built in.
Thx, it's a shame that he didn't show the replacement of the wiring harness and the main light motor.I was just taking it apart today and a few with more than the 2 screws like you had a problem with not coming off
Np, that would be a separate video. Swap parts isn't that hard, and anybody can do. Poking around in the headlight I can't recommend to people.
Hi Klavs
I want to install a dash cam do you have any vids on the cable run as finding it difficult to get the interior apart.
Also if I was to hard wire it. How does the cowling which is attached to the screen behind the interior mirror come off?
Thanks mate!
Hi.
I do have planed a hardwired front and rear dashcam install video planed, but no videos on my channel about that for now.
That should be holding together with clips to each other, just be careful, as that plastic is brittle after all this time.
Thank you.
I'm gonna do exactly the same today on my car.
You are welcome.
Good luck to you and hope every bolt, screw and plug is easy to take off 👍
Thanks for filming how to replace the headlight! I am just about doing the same, but I need your help: do you recommend new original Mazda replacement or new TYC replacement would do as well? Have you experienced any quality difference between original Mazda headlight and TYC headlight before? Both cost pretty much, therefore I do not want to risk to buy the cheaper TYC and be unhappy. Thank you!
You are welcome. There are few things to check before you buy any other company's headlight.
Is it build with OEM specifications, are the materials the same or they used cheaper materials. Is the price difference big enough for you to risk the headlight been different then the Mazda original.
Original from Mazda are made with the regulations of the county and meet the standards and law that they need to adhere to.
How I would do: IF you can get the aftermarket headlight half the price of a new Mazda one, I would. BUT if the price difference is slim or few 10's I would go with The Original.
Original Mazda headlight you will have warranty and know where to go if the headlight isn't correct or has a defect.
Great video, thanks
you are welcome, and thank you ✌
I didn’t know they had a hatchback Mazda 6 I need one now
@@chad8251 Massive boot space .
yeah they got hatchbacks. Not as stable as wagons. But, yeah, It's a hatch
Oh, you can fit a lot in the back. I rented a cement mixer, it went in the boot with ease.
I have xenon headlights, the aftermarket what i found comes with H9 H11 lamps. Can i replace xenon and socket instead of halogen?
As long as you have place where to bolt the transformer on the headlight should be fine. As the xenon light come with cooling and volt transformer.
Muchas gracias justo lo que necesitaba.
You are welcome 👍
I have the same car with the same left headlight damage. Mine is 2008 and the suspension is so rusty, especially in the back. I bought it used from Austria and on the first inspection the mechanic told me it had 4 years to live with this much rust. That was 3 years ago. I almost put it up for sale last month, but right now looking at what crap is coming out of VAG group and the price vs. features in cars even from 2019, I decided I will stick with it. I can bash Mazda for poor rust protection and no coating even on wire connectors (I've started having a lot of connector issues), but the level of quality is still light years ahead of last gen german budget cars. I've tested 2017-2019 skodas/vws in worse condition than my 15yo car (for 5 times the price).
Mazda 6 or the GH platforms are famous for rust, even I have plenty of rust. on my car the rear needs a refurbishing or new parts.
If you like Mazda and the ''quality'' how good it was , look for the next gen models, most of the issues the GH platform had, was fixed.
Only people complain about the skyactive part, and some engine variants.
How far I know, I would rather get a 8 - 10 year old car, than the newest ones.
It is curios that mine is the facelift 2.0 155 CP Petrol luxury sport with only one xenon white light for low and high beam and no place for the high beam like in your headlight in the middle for the high halogen beam. Interestingly they are harder to find
Probably you have the MK2 Mazda headlights, that are the facelift versions of what I got.
But that's my guess. Here in UK, they are everywhere, it's harder to find the facelift version ones.
por que cambiaste la lampara pregunta, saludos... ..
Hello. I change the lamp because it was damaged and couldn't be bolted down to the car.
@@KlavsX_ si vi en el video que haces referencia a una parte del área donde se sujeta la lámpara ,me llamo la atención tu vídeo porque yo tengo un mazda 6 2011 mexicano y de repente resultó que una luz baja delantera lado del conductor no encendía y procedí a cambiar la lámpara (foco) y quedo,después cambie el de lado derecho para emparejar la intensidad, pero como a los 15 días detecte que esa luz ya no encendía y volví a revisar la instalación y todo bien,de repente la luz funciono normalmente y a los pocos días se volvió a apagar hasta la fecha e tratado de ver todos los tumorales posibles hasta que di con el tuyo,la lámpara trae unos módulos y he pensado que podrían ser la falla como ves tu,saludos de Matamoros México.
Oh, Mexico. Awesome. Hello form United Kingdom. Sounds like connection issue. Check in the plugs if the copper poles / pins aren't corroded or discolored. Could be with heat and movement the plug is moving around and losing connection
@@KlavsX_ pense que eras de alguna parte de Estados Unidos,tomare en cuenta tu observacion y estarenos en contacto @Klavsx_ ,saludos cordiales de este lado del charco como decimos nosotros .
😆 I hear that saying all the time. Hope you can fix your headlights not working problem, and it's easy and cheap fix. Changing electrical parts for Mazda will be expensive.
Where i can buy set of headlamp , and is there any difference btw US version and Europe one / Japan one
It all depends how much you want to spend and where you live.
You can get new ones from Mazda themselves. But ebay is your cheapest bet, and you might strike a good deal on newer model headlights.
There are differences, Japan and UK drive on the other side, so the beam aims to the other side, what won't work in EU and US.
What if my car has a hood? Don't see a bonnet anywhere. :)
😂 Then you need to upgrade to a bonnet 😉
Can the projector be cleaned or removed from the headlight?
Sadly not. The headlight is 1 piece. all you can remove , the bulbs.
What sort of bulbs fits for low beam and high beam?
Good video, thanks 😊
Thank you, glad you liked it 👍
Brother How much cost
Both headlights 😊mazda 6 2009 sports
It depends where you live and if you wanna brand new ones or 2nd hand.
2nd hand ones / used - can be got from 50 - 150 pounds per headlight ( so around 100 - 300), on ebay
Brand new starting from 150 - 300 per headlight. It all depends how NEW you wanna go
@@KlavsX_
Thank you Brother am in oman
good!
👌
What a freakin pain. Mazda sure dropped the ball on this design.
😅 It is pain. Sadly not, the newest /2015 as far I know, is almost the same.
But I could be wrong.... 🤔 I hope I am
Anyone have 2010 mazda 6 driver side headlight
How much it cost ?
ebay would be the best/ cheapest option
What a pain in the you know what.
Oh, 100% agreed.
