I'm hoping I'll feel stupid for asking if someone gives me the way but does anyone know how to swap out a headlight on a late model Mazda truck?

I took a quick look, then did online searchs and checked the manual. Only info I found was the manual which says to remove the bulb... problem is I don't see a way to easily reach the bulb without taking out the air intake on the passenger side and the battery on the drivers? Thinking I must be missing something simple.

I dont know how the newer mazdas are, but I know on my 01, its a pain in the ass, you need to take out 3 clips that are holding them in individualy, Like I said, I dont think its like the newer rangers where its just one big clip for each side of the headlight.

Where are the 3 clips? and that lets you take the headlight housing out of the truck to reach the bulb? I don't have a problem taking the bulb out it's being able to reach the bulb to take it out.
