Changing HID bulb

Guys is it very difficult to change the HID bulbs on the low beams?
What do i need to do, anyone can point me to some instructions on this?

The vehicle owner's manual lays out how to do this in Section 8, page 28. But, it says if your vehicle is equipped with the HID low-beams they can only be replaced by your Mazda Dealer. Regardless, I don't see the issue with replacing them, just don't touch the bulbs. I could be wrong on that last point, though.

EDIT: Just noticed this was in Far East cat., so your manual may be different than mine, thus the Section I mentioned could be wrong.

Thanks guys!
Finally replaced my bulbs last night. It was not as difficult as expected.
Just had to jack up the car, remove the plastic pieces in the wheel well to reach the bulb. Took abt an hour+ to do it!
Very happy with the 8000k bulbs
