Hey FLIPSPEED,

PM\'ed you. Let me know what you can do. Thanks!!

A while back I installed a set of OEM HIDs I got from the U.S. The headlight housings came complete with the actuators (motors) to adjust the angle (level) of the projectors. I never really looked...

Any updates on the availability of Brembo rotors?

Any ideas when the Brembo discs will start shipping and where they will be available?

They also have the Hawk HPS pads at www.tiretrends.com

Yeah those are very nice as well, but since I have a set of winters there is no point for an All Season set. The Michelin Pilot Exalto A/S are all season, that\'s what the A/S stands for.

I also run with Michelin Pilot Alpine on 16\" steelies. They are better then the crappy Goodyear RSAs on dry or asphalt wet and grip snow and ice very well.

Yes, they are more expensive but you...

Do you guys think this would work with an iPod shuffle?

TheBiz, what mp3 player will you be using this with?

Hey Jeff,
Is it possible to order the needed parts and install the trip computer and temperature sensor into an \'04?

Thanks for the link Ex-Rolla, but this does not apply to me. I have a set of OEM headlight housings which came of a HID equipped Mazda 3 in the US.

Hehehe...LOL, I guess they didn\'t. However, it is most likely because I refuse to believe that this is normal. I\'m determined to find a solution to this which doesn’t involve...

That\'s just the thing. I haven’t modified anything either. The lights I have in my 3 now are a set from a US HID equipped 3, and have not been modified in any way, yet they still...

Has anyone noticed that their lights bounce/vibrate when they go over certain bumps in the road like cracks, manhole covers, etc?

Apparently there is an inherit flaw in the Mazda 3 headlights...

I really have to disagree with the statement that you get a very sharp cutoff with a kit. I had a kit and although the cutoff was OK, it was no where near as good as with the proper HID projectors....

Yes, I have a \'04 Mazda 3 GT hatchback. I\'m sure you know that in the US you can order HIDs as an option on the Mazda 3, so when I say OEM HIDs what I mean is the headlights, bulbs and ballasts...

I would definitely recommend getting a set of OEM HID headlights or doing a retro with proper HID projectors. I had a kit installed for a while (H7 rebased Philips 5100K bulbs with DENSO ballasts)...

I finally got a chance to install the kit. It took me a few good hours to take the bumper and headlights off. Once the headlights were off I was able to modify (bend) the existing clip to hold the...

If you have a look at the third picture you will notice that there is a limited amount of space between the top part and the ballast connector. If I use a grommet and put the clip on top of it, there...

The bulb does indeed fit into the H7 housing, and the clip does in fact fit over the bulb very easily, it is actually loose. It would be hard for me to bend the clip properly without taking the...

Here are a few pictures of the kit and bulb. As you can see the way the bulb is connected to the ballast is quite a bit different then most of the other kits out there. From what I can see so far I...

I know, but to my surprise the ballasts are quite small. I would say they are smaller then two packs of smokes side-by-side.

don\'t have your pm :( and I\'m at work right now. My MSN at work is internal only.
What\'s your email? I\'ll email you from work.

Sounds good, lets just hope I can get them in :)

I\'m really impressed with it too.

I already tested it earlier today and it worked great. Now if I could only figure out how to secure the bulbs I\'d very happy.

Just got my long awaited HID Kit in the mail today. Here is exactly the one I got:
