can anyne give me some bulb sizes?

[oakley990099]

i searched quite a few threads and "how to" forums but i couldn't find a definite answer. i am looking to swap all my interior/license plate lights with led ones from:http://www.v-leds.com/ .. i saw a very useful thread someone made for an msp that just had a list of every bulb location and size on the car.. is it possible to get one for an 08 ms3?? or maybe find one that i seemed to pass

-greatly appreciate it

If you read around the V-LED site it will direct you to a fitment page, which will further direct you to Sylvania's fitment page. After plugging in the Mazda 3 you get this: http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProducts/AutomotiveLighting/LampReplacementGuide/AutoLRG-Results.htm

Instead of trying to find each of the individual bulbs, you could get this: http://www.corksport.com/corksport-led-light-kit-2004-2009-mazdaspeed-3-and-mazda-3.html

In my boredom here at work I looked up the actual bulbs you will need:

2 x http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED-...-5K-WHITE-2W-4-p8761206.html#ReviewsTabAnchor
3 x http://www.v-leds.com/Exterior-LED-...e-LED/2-HID-WHITE-5K-HIGH-POWER-p7114849.html - Actually gets you 6 bulbs.

 

[oakley990099]

Big help willd thanks

how come for the 3x one they arent size:2825 like in the SYLVANIA guide?

 

[WillD]

Hmm...looks like I linked the wrong ones. If you do a search for 2825 you'll see what your options are.

Looks like these: http://www.v-leds.com/Interior-LED-...S-5K-WHITE-194-p8804828.html#ReviewsTabAnchor

[oakley990099]

Hahah wow good thing I stuck with my gut and asked. I thought I was just being really dumb and not understanding or missing the concept so I wasn't going to ask and just order them. Thanks for the quick replies and help again

 

[WillD]

No problem, I'm just passing the time at work! If you are still unsure you could probably call them and ask just to be sure. All the numbers they have on the items on their site is confusing at times.

 

[oakley990099]

Yeah and specially when im doing the same thing. Balancing work and trying to order these haha

 

[WillD]

Did you ever get those ordered? Which ones did you end up getting?

 

[oakley990099]

Yes just waiting for them in the mail. I had to go to another website though because at that one they were almost all sold out. So I did some research and found some good reviews for another site and ordered there so let's hope they come through and aren't s*** quality. I bought:
2-7440 for reverse lights
4-2825 for map and l.p lights
1-de3175 for dome light

Should be expecting them tomorrow

 

[WillD]

Cool let me know how they work out.

 

[oakley990099]

Yeah ill post some pics. I decided to go with blue for inside the cabin(dunno) so I hope I won't regret that decision

 

[bbrich57]

Actually none of this is necessary.
If you look in the back of your owners manual, it lists bulb sizes and where they go.... most of them at least.

Yeah ill post some pics. I decided to go with blue for inside the cabin(dunno) so I hope I won't regret that decision

That's a good look, if you don't mind not being able to see anything. It will be dark, so be forewarned.
I'm not trying to be a smart ass, just something you might want to consider before spending your money.

 

[oakley990099]

Yes im aware blue will be dark thanks...
