Chipotle

I have sold my MS3 and removed this set of Apexcone HID's. I bought these in mid Feb 07 and after waiting a bit for them arrive, I installed them. They have been in use between 3-4 months. This is the 6000k kit, which gives a blueish hue. Also noted this is NOT the 50w off road kit. Tell you to truth, not much night driving. But we can consider them below to average usage time. This kit hooks right up, and there are tons of write ups for directions. These were bought from XenonExpert and come with a Lifetime warranty. I will try and get details on warranty transfer from XenonExpert, but you may want to as well for your own satisfaction. The fine text on their page says Lifetime warranty provided by Xtec. Not sure what that means. But these lights are working beautifully as of being pulled from the car with care. I am not including the double sided tape thing, as I tried to use it to stick it to the car, but didnt find a surface to work well so trashed them and drilled some holes for the ballasts. Also, I am in the process of looking for the instructions. I didnt use the ones that came with them as they werent mazda 3 specific. The was a walk through in the lighting forum that was very detailed and helpfull. Let me know if you have any questions. Send me a pm if interested. Selling kit for $245 shipped. Insurance is included. Product Info: http://www.xenonexpert.com/hids4ukit.html

Yeah, I miss it just about every day. The problem was I just couldnt have fun in it. Got two tickets in a two month period. That and my tires were about to have to be replaced after 11k. Every time i was driving it, i was scared if i was going too fast since its so easy in that car. On top of that, i do alot of outdoors stuff, so a perf street car didnt make much since for me.

I'm surprised the tires lasted that long.. ever look at the treadwear rating on them? 140!

I've gotten 10-15k miles out of tires with a 340 treadwear rating.. and they're about done.

I can definitely relate about a car just being too easy to go fast in. Mind over matter, you just gotta learn to control yourself

the MS3 makes a great outdoorsy car.. what hatchback doesn't? Maybe an Outback Sport would be more appropriate but it's not nearly as nice lookin
