Fog Lights

[CalgaryMS6]

After using the search I could only dig up info on Protege's and HID conversions. I'm sure I've read somewhere what I'[m looking for, but I can't seem to find it now.

I am looking for a replacement bulb (PIAA?) for my fog lights that will give me a whiter, closer match to my stock HID lowbeams.

Any suggestions, or possible part numbers?

Thanks

BTW the OEM factory fog light bulb is a H11

You sir are a champ, thank you very much!

*edit* Ohhhh... looks like I might be able to match up a high beam too! Excellent!

 

[VRMS6]

Just got these in the mail today. Now I need to find a How-To on installing them...

Ahh. Found it. http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123661988&highlight=fog

Has to do primarily with an HID conversion for the fogs, but the first part shows you the best way to access/remove the stockers.

good luck

Got 'em installed. They look better than the stockers, that's for sure. Not as bright as I was hoping, then again it might just be my fogs that are dirty. A cheap little mod that was pretty easy to do. The walkthrough I posted above was a good help, especially the part about bending the horn bracket a bit out of the way. That was a tight squeeze!

I love the look of these new fogs. Now I want to do the other lights.

What are the bulb types for the Daytime, High Beam, and "halo" lights? I see the sticky for bulb types, but is that only for Mazda6 and not Speed6? Or do they all use the same lights?

So Steefnap and Calgary Ms6, I was wondering what the wattage is on the Hoen bulbs. Also was their any differences in brightness and any extra heat?


Thanks.

 

[steefnap]

I did not check the wattage... nor could I tell you if there's any extra heat. Brightness was slightly increased, but the colour of the light was a closer match to the HIDs, which was what I wanted in the first place.

As a side note... I'm a little ticked at the roads here in Calgary. My fog light must've taken a HUGE rock, because one of the fog light covers is shattered and exposed to open air. Luckily, the Hoen light is not busted.
