how do i get rid of the bastage? I'm going to see if the dealer can't take care of it tommorow. If not take the head light apart? any ideas?

Crack the light, or use a small vacuum hose.

Yea if you can't get him out, just take out the headlight and just stick some pliers/long tweezers and just pluck it out. If that doesn't work maybe some compressed air to blow him out..or possibly a flexible stick with a bit of adhesive material at the tip to get it out...shouldn't be too hard.

Hahaha, this happened to me! Spider and web were removed by the dealer but some of the web is still there. Our MS6s must have been at the same port and attacked by the same family of spidies.

Thats funny. I have a little spider get caught up in mine too, this is weird...

I had the same problem. Just took my headlight off and shook it out. He fell out the back.....problem solved

 

[awdterror]

thanks guys.
he seems to be making a home in there

 

[awdterror]

just got back from the deal. stated they couldn't do it under warrenty and where it was at would at least be an hours worth of work. the spider did move to a different spot and i was able to kill it, webs are still there.

maybe i'll get off my lazy ass and bake the headlight and clean it out.

I had a couple of dead bugs in my tail light assembly. Dealer ordered a new one and replaced for me under warranty.

They couldn't remove a spider under warranty????they sold you the car with the spider in it right?

They should have done something about it.

 

[awdterror]

i've had the car for about a month now.
they are not going to warrenty it because they said mazda would drop the claim because it doesn't effect the light in any way. they say they usually just die or crawl out and the webbing eventually disintigrates.

they say it happens more than you think. there are drain holes in the headlight for the condensation and they usually crawl in there. the guy said they don't last to long because they can't get food in there and it gets hot and the die from the heat when the sun shines on it.

sweet mod.




spiders are good luck

 

[emiirei]

i have a small dead cocroach in mine. not sure how to take it out. so i just left it.

 

[tom6433]

how odd, i saw a dead spider in the headlight my '04 the other day and it made me laugh. i had never had a problem with bugs getting insde my headlights before. i do have a problem with gnats getting iside the cabin tho. all windows are up and sunroof is closed but they are still getting in somewhere. drives me crazy.

My 2003 6s had a dead spider in the headlight housing as well. It stayed there the entire 3 years I owned the car. I think this is a factory issue, although the Speed6 is made in Japan.
