    Low-beam? Side-marker? Fog? Need to be a little more specific here.

    Either case, you should be able to find the stock bulbs at a Canadian Tire or something. Probably a bunch of shops out there that would have it, but Canadian Tire seems like a safe bet.

    Any major parts store will stock them. If you're looking for a decent set, i highly recommend the Morimoto D2S 35W XB35 series bulbs. Replace them in pairs. if you go aftermarket on one of them, chances are they will never look the same.

    XB35's are about 70$ shipped for both, where as OEM ones run about 200+ at the dealer, and Aftermarket replacements run about 100-135 depending on your place of purchase.

    Since you have HIDs: be advised: you'll have to pull the bumper cover off and remove the headlight assemblies from the car in order to change out the bulbs. Not terribly difficult to do, but it is easier if you have a second set of hands.

    ... which is why you'll need the pull headlamp assemblies. There isn't enough clearance at the back to remove cover, and then reach inside to pull out the the connector and then bulb. The original design only allowed for halogen bulbs, which don't protrude out as far at the back as the HIDs. The first gen 3s were designed with halogen bulbs in mind -- the HIDs were added later and have larger headlamp assemblies.

    lol..no way I will take it to them...

    I dropped by Scarboro Mazda and they want $170 for one of them. I am leaning towards the Sylvania Osram on Amazon for $84..anyone know if these will look like factory HID output and what brand are the factory bulbs?

    By the way does the 2007 Mazda 3 GT come with HIDs from the factory?
