    My 2011 Mazda 3 GX with Halogen headlights has 15amp fuses for low beam. A 55W XID kit I bought requires 20 amp fuses. Does anyone know if you can safely just change to 20 amp fuses.

    I was just wondering what color 5000K and 6000K bulbs on 55W would look like. 55W 5000K: Blue, Tint of Blue, White, Yellowish or Yellow? 55W 6000K: Blue, Tint of Blue, White, Yellowish or Yellow? Also, did you ever got flashed from oncoming cars after installing 55W?

    2014 Mazda3 HB... I have 5000K 35w HIT bulb installed on my car, with resistor kit connected to each bulb to control the flickering issue. I am trying to upgrade them to 55w bulbs, 5000K, from the same same company, same product. I was wondering if I can still use the same resistors I used for...

    One of the first things I wanted to do when I got my '14 Mazda 3 Sedan was swap out those dreadful OEM yellow headlights into something that stood out more on the road. I found a decently priced kit for H11's(NOT H11B) on HidKitXenonLights.com for ~$105 USD, without the canceller(unnecessary)...

    Hello folks, I'm planning to get one of DDM HID kits but I'm not sure which voltage is right for my car. I have a 2011 M3 I-sport and it takes H11 bulbs for low beam. On the back of the bulbs, the voltage for the bulbs are listed 55W. So, does that mean that I have to go with a 55W HID or it...

    Im debating against these 2. I know 6000k is really popular but have anyone experienced 4500k? have any pics of the light output of both? which would you recommend

    Hello all! New to this forum and basically here for a question on behalf of a Christmas gift for the girlfriend's 2010 mazda 3. She is basically complaining that her stock halogens don't illuminate a high enough output for driving in poorly lit areas at night. I see many of you all have...

    Hi, I wasn't getting any responses in the "HID Thread" so I came here. Anybody know if I can run 4300k 55w hid headlights in my stock housing WITHOUT melting or frying anything? I need to know if I'll need relay harnesses. I'm thinking I should be fine without the harnesses as the stock bulbs...

    This week I installed a 35w 6000K HID kit in my 2009 mazda 3. At first I though it was plenty bright but I've realized things would probably look 100x with the 55w HIDs. My question is if I buy another kid that is 55w can I just replaced the ballasts that I currently have in my car and leave the...

    I have pretty much decided on getting 55w 8000k DDM hids, probably the raptor kit(metal over plastic). I want my lights to be as legally blue as possible, so I'm getting 8000k's in hopes that the 55w will wash out some color. Also, with the higher kelvin temp, the light output would be slightly...

    Ok so I've been thinking into getting the 6k HID kid but I wanted opinions on the 55 vs the 35w balasts which I was gonna go for the 55 but I wasn't sure. I mean do they draw that much power on a Mazda 3 I know the car Is small hut idk how bad. Currently my headlights r stock and when I push the...

    Grrr.... I just can't decide if I should go with the 35w or 55w slim's from DDM tuning. I've decided on the 5000k in color. Will the 35w 5000k be a lot brighter than stock halogen's? Feedback would be great guys!! Thanks

    hi, is there anyone having those issue that the ballast would become defect after a certain time? Or it would run great with no issue? Thanks
  15. 2010-2013 Mazda 3 & Skyactiv Discussion
    I'm hoping that I can run into someone who wants to trade their 55W ballasts for my 35W ballasts. Let me know if you have any other questions?
  16. 2010-2013 Mazda 3 & Skyactiv Appearance & Interior
    Hey guys, I'm new here. I've been look around and couldn't find the answer. What is needed to be done to upgrade my existing HIDs to 55W 4500K light? Thanks in advance
