Side Light marker bulb replacement.

looks like it, but the bulb is actually not user replaceable. you need to replace the whole side-light. i'm thinking of getting a set of ebay that have a separate bulb holder.
damn that sucks
i would recommend using a hot knife to remove the old bulb assemble
then buy a t10 light socket and bulb and either splice into the body harness or use the old pins from the burnt light socket and solder them together with the new socket and shrink wrap it all

Is this bc there's no way to access bulb (other than seperating the cover and silicone glueing it back) or is the bulb integrated (don't quite understand that)? If the bulb itself is replaceable, can't you just swap in a 194 LEd bulb? I don't understand the need for that since these are only blinkers and not parking lights, unless the OP intends to keep it lit or add color?
That is awesome. Thanks for the Info. I'll get back to you guys once I take my side light appart and replace/jimmy-right the bulb.
Mazda has the whole unit for $30. I refuse to pay that much money for a $2 bulb replacement. Time to heat gun or drill out the burnt bulb.
I am also working on a USB charger that can charge a Ipod.
