Avoiding a voided warranty when changing headlights

[SilentChaos]

Hi I got my first Mazda 3 2015 sedan and it's my first car. So I'm pretty new with all these car stuff.

I have noticed how my low beams are pretty dim compared to many other vehicles.
I wish to change the headlights to HID'S with aftermarket parts.

However will this void my warranty?

I looked at the manual but it doesn't say much.

I was wondering if anyone can help me out with this question.
I would appreciate the help

Thanks

it will effect the warranty of whatever is related to the headlight. so if something was to melt or haze, they can blame it on the aftermarket parts (even if it has nothing to do with it). however, you can always change back to OEM before heading in for warranty

What he said pretty much any issues just change back to normal for warranty thats all. But chance of anything happening to a headlight is very slim so don't worry

Thanks for the replies!
Sounds like a hassle to change back to OEM though, in case something happens.

you could always pay for the repair lol. but sometimes its worth the extra work to switch back

Why not just look at the extra bright halogens that are out on the market now?

I installed 65w (Osram H7 from Daniel Stern Lighting) bulbs in my first 2005 Mazda3 GT (no xenons), and I could not tell a difference in brightness between it and the 55w bulb. Compared left and right, couldn't see much difference.

Frankly, I think the headlights are just fine, they're halogen, they will never be as bright as xenons, but there are times when xenons are too blinding for me as a driver (try driving out in the country on snow covered roads).

I'd still opt for Xenons, of course, if I didn't have to step up to the automatic-only GT (a year ago).
