Or...you could buy this kit (http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showthread.php?43909-85-Slim-Hid-Kits-w-18-month-warranty-Relay-Rubber-piece-spacer) off our sponsor for $85 and get 18 months warranty

DIY is the only way to become one with your car if you can and have the gear. In this case yes DIY

I could see 100 for installation.. if they installed it 5 times lol. Really its not hard at all. No matter the cost, save on the installation and do it yourself.

Haha, I was actually quoted $100 for installation back in 05. They probably said they gotta remove the bumper etc....

I was looking at your profile and I noticed that you have the 04-06 GT sedan? If that's correct, I guess the GTs did not come with HIDs then?

As for the link you posted, the low beams are H7 so they should have the right size for your car. Also, it might be a good idea to get a relay kit w/ capacitor to avoid flickering. :)

Oh, and welcome! :)

It's really simple to install. If you want to buy one from a sponsor, and don't mind waiting until May/June, I can bring it with me and help you install it when I come to NS.
(I don't think you want to wait that long though lol)

If you end up waiting, i may be out that way in a couple mnths. Grandpa on his way out in Nfld. I'm wanting to drive instead of fly but depends how how much of an emergency it is.

I know people it sounds horrible but we have all seen in coming for years. Actually 5. Were happy but surprised he lasted so long.
