I just phone my dealer to ask but the stock controller has alredy finish so I'll have to wait till monday to ask. Another solution is to replace all tail light by led

It's not cheap but seems really great.

Lightbulb I got an idea

I've asked an english friend to go to a Mazda dealer. In G.B. (in every country with right hand drive) the reverse tail light and the rear fog lamp are invert compare with us. So if you want a clear lense on your rear fog lamp I suggest to order a reverse tail lamp from a RHD mazda 3 and put a red bulb into it.
As soon as I've got mazda's reference and price, I'll post it. And yes Anthony, I've asked references for both hatch AND SEDAN

Just put some 10,000K in mine.... took 30 mins. Didnt need to take the bumper off. The ballasts mount uunder the headlights (the bottoms are flat and you 3M tape them to the bottom of the housings)

10,000k? Good grief! Are they purple?



OEM HID's are typically 4300k.

So what do we think is the ratio of HID : Halogen cars here? It seems everyone here has HID's.

there should be no reason not to have HIDs nowadays. They come so cheap and also whats spending $125 (average) compared to saving yourself from an accident at night.
