(Thread Starter) |   Neutral : -1 score  Does my MS3 have HID, Bi-Xenon, or Halogen I have the base 2010 MS3 with the technology package. My guess is that the headlights are HID and everything else is halogen, but I'm not sure. My headlights suck right now and the front left assembly has water/ moisture/ fog inside it. |

| Neutral : -1 score Your lack of research is showing. Google both of the types of bulbs and look at their light. Compare to yours. Done.

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score I'm not even sure what type of bulb it is. And I'd rather not spend time removing the whole headlight assembly and reinstalling it twice just to compare bulbs online. (I daily this car) When I could save a hell of a lot more time by just getting a polite answer from this forum. So again, if anyone knows if there's a difference between grand touring and base MS3 exterior lights. I would very grateful. |

(Thread Starter) | Not Ranked : 0 score I just read the entire Wikipedia page for the MS3. It mentions nothing about the lights. And neither does Edmunds. I've looked up the spec sheet on Google, but not one has mentioned the lights on the base model. I know I don't have lights that turn. So I'm assuming it's not the same as the grand touring. But I could be wrong |
