Hey guys so my mountain is like 3 hours away and i only go on the weekends, just got new boots (dif size) and im not tryna waste half a day for the shop there to setup my shit. No ski shops arnd me so im wondering if anyone has any videos or tips on me adjusting my stuff at home if its possibl. I dont need to remount, going from a 27.5 to 26.5.

I had a pair of pivots mounted on my Jeffreys in about 10 minutes in sun valley. As long as they aren't busy it shouldn't take long

Post a picture of your bindings. There is 99% chance they can be adjusted especially when its only one size

Generally with Marker bindings, you have a lot of room to adjust to a bigger boot sole, but only a few mm to go smaller. Relative to the boot sole length that the ski was originally mounted for. This is just because of how the mounting jig positions the heel track on the ski, the proper forward pressure setting usually ends up pretty close to the front of the adjustment range. Long story short, you may still need to remount.
And if this all sounds like gibberish to you, then please just take them to a shop.

adjusting the squire should only take seconds and is super easy, screw at rear of track, and possibly a toe height adjustment
