Hid

[mazdaspeed32007]

i found some for like 130 or so but im not sure the kind... i think the speed3 takes the h7. also i know the 3000k is yellow on the ground and the 5000k meets stock look damn near exact. does anyone have any suggestions on the heat preference. i like the stock look but also like the yellow...if its not bright ass yellow. maybe someone has some installed i could check out. thanks

4100k-4300k offer the highest lumen output and will be the closest to pure white light you can get. 3000k will be very yellow and will have a lower output. 3's with stock halogens use h7 bulbs.

I can see the reflective road marker things like a 1/4 mile down the road.

There are vendors here who sell warranteed kits for less than $130.00!

Go for 41/4300k, as that's what all US cars come with from the factory. Make sure they're properly rebased.

Philips electronics + Philips capsules ONLY. Sylvania/OSRAM capsules are fine too. Anything else will probably be some bad knock-off that breaks in a year.

HID is a safety item in my opinion, so spending a bit on it is worth it. The difference is amazing.

I have on my 3Hatch. 3000k for fogs and 8000K for highbeam!

 

[mazdaspeed32007]

thanks for the awesome pics. i def do not want those 3000k for my fogs. those are to yellow for my liking. im going to fit the fogs with the stock low beam range for sure. that s*** crazy bright tho. sweeeeeeeet!

If our stock xenon's are 4100-4300k and that's what most have, why is it that I think some cars burn hotter? Saab 9-3's look really purple so they must be up near 6000k.

Any thoughts on this?

some of the projectors look like the glass has been tinted as well...like the first thing i noticed on the evos was that when i looked closely at the headlights (when they were off) the glass seemed a bit turqoise.

plus...because of the way the projection housing works, the cut-off of the beam of light has a "rainbow" effect, so if your eyes are at the exact level you should be able to see more colors of the spectrum, and not just the color of the bulb. a lot like a prism. that's why when you see one coming towards you at night you can see purple or blue colors
