What have you done to your MS3 today?

If 1 light turns on it means there is enough current to trigger the relay giving power to your ballasts. The problem is more likely a bad ground or bad positive connection to your battery.

but the thing is that it's a direct plug and play for the fogs so im pretty sure the problem is after the stock part of the wiring. so either there's some sort of contact problem between the stock connectors and the bulbs, or they are bad ballasts

meh, i'll have to experiment later once the weather turns. i'd love to have the fogs seperate from the hi/low beam function, but the more i go to the independent fog "how to" the less i understand it. i've got a GT and can't remember if there was every a straight yes or no answer on if the independant fogs can be done. this is why i was questioning the fogs power being run through computer first on the gt, instead of a physical switching system. that would mean any changes might have the possibility of more problems (thank you CANBUS)
 
Got the emblems taken off without too much damage (broke the L&R clips on the front one, 3M adhesive will get her right back on there), rear one is painted and will be ready to put back on tomorrow. Gotta break for band practice so I'll have to do the front emblem tomorrow and put her back on Monday.

Bummer the front one didn't come off without breaking any tabs. But at least it'll still go back on OK.
 
Getting ready to anodize the BOV, inlet pipe and the SU TMIC red in color. Can't wait to see how they turn out.

Hehe yeah, the L/R ones broke the first time I touched them...methinks I was too rough. And I broke the "mazdaspeed" part in three places but i wasn't going to put it on anyway. I used the "3" as a tester to make sure my sanding/priming/painting was going to work and also as a gauge for drying time.

I had the same problem, I broke one of the tabs and that was even with reaching inside the bumper through the hood hatch carefully. 3M auto tape to the rescue.
 
Removed the door guards, MS3 badge, and painted the front and rear emblems red on my black mica. Now my new nickname at work is rudolph. I kinda like it but makes me want to paint them black.
 
got a universal "ipod" mount for the air vent. I can finally monitor my AP without endangering my life!
 
You know, with a few hand tools, some adhesive-backed felt, and a bit of time and patience I found it pretty easy to alleviate just about every creak and squeak coming from my interior. (dunno)
