Mazda MX5. How do I remove the centre air vents so I can remove the centre console

https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=How+to+put+battery+in+mazda+mx5+key+remote&&view=detail&mid=A1EE8745BF6A93CB2B93A1EE8745BF6A93CB2B93&&FORM=VRDGAR

check above the blower fan inlet behind the glove box for a panel that can be removed

disconnect battery. remove 1 gearshift surround held by clips. 2 centre glove box liner, 3 rear console air vent. 4 centre console held by screws. audio stack held by small bolts. make sure you remove gearshift from P before you disconnect battery,

Carefully prise out the plastic gear lever surround and unscrew the 2 screws which are exposed at the bottom of the centre console. Then carefully prise out the console fascia - this will remove the radio surround (perhaps easier to remove the stereo first) and also the cigarette lighter / light level adjuster / heated seat switch cluster. Now it's just a case of unclipping the plugs and pushing the switch unit through from the back.

After removing the switch unit, you'll see 4 plastic bulb holders on the underside - 2 for the switch backlights and 2 for the 'on' lights. These turn 1/4 and can be removed.

Apparently these bulbs are pretty expensive to buy from Mazda, and I have been unable to get a part number to source them elsewhere, but they certainly can be replaced.

In my opinion, the BEST way is to get somebody else to do it for free!...LOL

However, that is not very likely to happen in this millenium, so I have provided the pictures below.

Also please note that there is a Mazda 6i and a Mazda 6s But there is no Mazda MX6 in 2005. There is, however, a Mazda MX5...so assuming this is what you meant, the pictures are for the MX5.

If you meant Masda 6i or Mazda 6s, these pictures are not even close because the 6-series requires removal of the front bumper to remove the head lights.

Sounds like you have the "Valet" key for your car, which has only limited access. You need to get the "Primary" key for your vehicle, but I am not sure how you would go about doing so.

when my mazda mx5 is warmed up the engine idles at 800 revs after about 20 seconds the revs drop to 400 revs,after 5 seconds they pickup again to 800 revs,this pattern is continuous.HELP!!!!!

mcdevito75 here, The Mazda people should have the manual with the picture. Also speak again with the Mazda people.
