Does my MS3 have HID, Bi-Xenon, or Halogen
 
Sorry for the ignorance here, but after spending a good hour or two searching the web, I can't figure out what type of bulbs my headlights/ tail lights/ fog-lights/ turning signals use?

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.

Any particular reason no one wants to reply to me?

Your lack of research is showing.

Google both of the types of bulbs and look at their light. Compare to yours. Done.

Noah99 01-17-2020 02:07 PM

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.

Wikipedia works wonders for your simple question.

Noah99 01-17-2020 02:21 PM

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

If the Grand touring has xenon headlamps....What does the sport model have then? It failed to mention

Db09ms3 01-17-2020 03:11 PM

You can google for images on mazdaspeed headlights and compare to yours, i can tell just by the headlight on the car what they are in the Avatar.

Simple.

Sport = halogen.
GT = xenon
