Has anyone installed aftermarket headlights?

[magikflight]

Just got a touring the other day. Was curious if anyone has installed aftermarket headlights like these?

I was also looking into those; haven't pulled the trigger yet...

They do look sharp. Aftermarket HID's in the factory touring lights are a much-needed improvement. If you just are going after the look of the grand-touring, go for it.

Nice. Yeah I just got my cx a few days ago but just looking around to see what I can do and ran across these.

Yeah I love the GT look. Def will do HIDs for now until I can shell out the $$$ for these

No, I don't see the need in that. Probably just some slotted rotors and hawk pads.

Based on what/who?

Chris_Top_Her :

Noticed that Mitsubishi currently has $1500 off on Mirage

this brings a base 5-speed down to around $11.5k

I just noticed a post on the cx5 club fb page 3 hrs old. A guy just installed these as a gift from his fianc on his sport. He says they have a shutter (as they should) for high beams. These use osram h7 bulb which are high watt (ballast powered) headlight LED's not low power leds. http://www.ebay.com/itm/381915915654

There are quite a few mazda fb pages including a tuning page where you find the latest on turbo skys, cams, ECU tuning (all sky engines) and built engines etc. A lot of people make remoarks here that are completely wrong because they aren't in the loop (not referring to this thread specifically).

Chris-top-her, I wasn't able to find the exact cx-5 club facebook page. Do you know if the guy posted anymore pictures or his impressions of the headlights?

Not that I have seen unless it got buried. https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1541413606071616&tsid=0.7359252441674471&source=typeahead

Thanks for the link Chris_top_her. I've submitted a request to join the Facebook cx-5 club. As for the headlights, I'm very close to pulling the trigger.
